Summary

KVM does not always use 0x40000000 as its CPUID base. For example, QEMU
adds a 0x100 offset when nested virtualization is detected and the host
exposes Hyper-V enlightenment hints. To accommodate this behavior,
switch the detection logic to use the CPUID leaf returned by do_cpuid(),
making the implementation more flexible.

See:
https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/target/i386/kvm/kvm.c#L2300
