KVM: VMX: conditionally disable 2M pages
Disable usage of 2M pages if VMX_EPT_2MB_PAGE_BIT (bit 16) is clear in MSR_IA32_VMX_EPT_VPID_CAP and EPT is enabled. [avi: s/largepages_disabled/largepages_enabled/ to avoid negative logic] Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
