x86, kvm: cache the base of the KVM cpuid leaves
It is unnecessary to go through hypervisor_cpuid_base every time a leaf is found (which will be every time a feature is requested after the next patch). Fixes: 1085ba7f552d84aa8ac0ae903fa8d0cc2ff9f79d Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: mtosatti@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
