Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Use closest CPU model when decoding from CPUID

Current implementation of x86Decode() used for CPUID -> model+features translation does not always select the closest CPU model. When walking through all models from cpu_map.xml the function considers a new candidate as a better choice than a previously selected candidate only if the new one is a superset of the old one. In case the new candidate is closer to host CPU but lacks some feature comparing to the old candidate, the function does not choose well. This patch changes the algorithm so that the closest model is always selected. That is, the model which requires the lowest number of additional features to describe host CPU.
