That's leaf 0x40000001. Which is also the leaf used for Xen to indicate
the Xen version. So as long as we don't pretend to be Xen version
12759.30280 I suppose that's OK.

Or we could just check leaf 0x40000000 for 'Microsoft Hv'? Or both.

How about...

#define HYPERV_CPUID_INTERFACE_MAGIC 0x31237648 /* 'Hv#1' */

static inline bool guest_cpu_has_hyperv(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
        struct kvm_hv *hv = &vcpu->kvm->arch.hyperv;
        const struct kvm_cpuid_entry2 *entry;

        /*
         * The call to kvm_find_cpuid_entry() is a bit much to put on
  
* the fast path of some of the Hyper-V MSRs, so bypass it if
         * the guest OS ID has already been set.
         */
        if (hv->hv_guest_os_id)
                return true;

        entry = kvm_find_cpuid_entry(vcpu, HYPERV_CPUID_INTERFACE, 0x0);
        return entry && entry->eax == HYPERV_CPUID_INTERFACE_MAGIC;
}

I wonder if this is overengineering when 'let Xen take precedence'
works well enough?
