target/i386: kvm: do not access uninitialized variable on older kernels
KVM support for AMX includes a new system attribute, KVM_X86_XCOMP_GUEST_SUPP. Commit 19db68ca68 ("x86: Grant AMX permission for guest", 2022-03-15) however did not fully consider the behavior on older kernels. First, it warns too aggressively. Second, it invokes the KVM_GET_DEVICE_ATTR ioctl unconditionally and then uses the "bitmask" variable, which remains uninitialized if the ioctl fails. Third, kvm_ioctl returns -errno rather than -1 on errors. While at it, explain why the ioctl is needed and KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID is not enough. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
