KVM: x86: Advertise host CPUID 0x80000005 in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID

Browse source

Advertise CPUID 0x80000005 (L1 cache and TLB info) to userspace so that
VMMs that reflect KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID into KVM_SET_CPUID2 will
enumerate sane cache/TLB information to the guest.

CPUID 0x80000006 (L2 cache and TLB and L3 cache info) has been returned
since commit 43d05de2be ("KVM: pass through CPUID(0x80000006)").
Enumerating both 0x80000005 and 0x80000006 with KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
is better than reporting one or the other, and 0x80000005 could be helpful
for VMM to pass it to KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} for the same reason with
0x80000006.
