Ok, I apparently forgot to force the CPUID xlevel to be 0x8000000A when
SVM is enabled, probably because I only tested CPUID models where xlevel
already defaults to 0x8000000A. Attached is a fix, thanks for catching
this.

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] qemu: Force xlevel to at least 0x8000000A if SVM is enabled

This patch forces the extended CPUID level to be at least
0x8000000A if SVM is enabled in the CPU model.
