Er, not this function exactly, since CPUID should report the feature
even when the guest's not in long_mode. I think it needs a
hvm_pse1G_supported that can be called from CPUID, and then
guest_supports_1G_superpages() boils down to
"(GUEST_PAGING_LEVEL>= 4)&& hvm_pse1G_supported(v)"
New version attached. I removed the fake l1e calculation.
Something is still wrong: The l2 guest kernel crashes with
an unexpected null pointer derefencing but it boots w/o
this patch.
Is it a problem when l1 guest uses 1gb pages where the host
uses 4k or 2m pages?
