The general expecation with feature ID registers is that they're 'reset'
exactly once by KVM for the lifetime of a vCPU/VM, such that any
userspace changes to the CPU features / identity are honored after a
vCPU gets reset (e.g. PSCI_ON).
KVM handles what it calls VM-scoped feature ID registers correctly, but
feature ID registers local to a vCPU (CLIDR_EL1, MPIDR_EL1) get wiped
after every reset. What's especially concerning is that a
potentially-changing MPIDR_EL1 breaks MPIDR compression for indexing
mpidr_data, as the mask of useful bits to build the index could change.
This is absolutely no good. Avoid resetting vCPU feature ID registers
more than once.
