eax, ebx, ecx, edx: the values returned by the cpuid instruction for
this function/index combination
+The TSC deadline timer feature (CPUID leaf 1, ecx[24]) is always returned
+as false, since the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP for local APIC
+support. Instead it is reported via
+
+ ioctl(KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION, KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER)

+if that returns true and you use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, or if you emulate the
+feature in userspace, then you can enable the feature for KVM_SET_CPUID2.
