KVM implements the firmware interface for mitigating cache speculation vulnerabilities. Guests may use this interface to ensure mitigation is active. If we want to migrate such a guest to a host with a different support level for those workarounds, migration might need to fail, to ensure that critical guests don't loose their protection. Introduce a way for userland to save and restore the workarounds state. On restoring we do checks that make sure we don't downgrade our mitigation level.
