Avi,

I'm getting the following panic very early on boot on a F16 VM (latest
qemu.git head 40897c9):

After some debugging and I found out that this only happens when '-cpu host'
is passed, and according to git bisect it's caused by the following commit:

commit 66e3dd9282141b5ae75637c9676002cf3ceeb988
Author: Avi Kivity<a...@redhat.com>
Date:   Wed Nov 9 15:44:36 2011 +0200

     i386: derive '-cpu host' from KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID


Strange, since it looks like cpuid 1 (ebx) returns the correct APIC ID.

Anthony, I think we should revert that commit and refactor cpuid for
1.1.  The logic is spread over too many places which makes it hard to
reason about.

Ack.

Regards,

Anthony Liguori
