Advertise UMIP as emulated if and only if the host doesn't natively support UMIP, otherwise vmx_umip_emulated() is misleading when the host _does_ support UMIP. Of the four users of vmx_umip_emulated(), two already check for native support, and the logic in vmx_set_cpu_caps() is relevant if and only if UMIP isn't natively supported as UMIP is set in KVM's caps by kvm_set_cpu_caps() when UMIP is present in hardware. That leaves KVM's stuffing of X86_CR4_UMIP into the default cr4_fixed1 value enumerated for nested VMX. In that case, checking for (lack of) host support is actually a bug fix of sorts, as enumerating UMIP support based solely on descriptor table exiting works only because KVM doesn't sanity check MSR_IA32_VMX_CR4_FIXED1. E.g. if a (very theoretical) host supported UMIP in hardware but didn't allow UMIP+VMX, KVM would advertise UMIP but not actually emulate UMIP. Of course, KVM would explode long before it could run a nested VM on said theoretical CPU, as KVM doesn't modify host CR4 when enabling VMX, i.e. would load an "illegal" value into vmcs.HOST_CR4.
