Why do this trick here instead of just adding "pv-dedicated" to
feature_word_info[FEAT_KVM].feat_names?

Actually this hint doesn't depend on KVM, just qemu command-line gives
a hint and then guest kernel can recognize it. Is there a nicer
proposal in qemu? Paolo?

Please add a new feature word, since this is not a PV feature but more
like a performance hint.

Thanks,

Paolo

I think because it can be added independent of KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.

If QEMU knows it can be enabled if outside GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID,
kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid() can return it as supported.
