The commit 539aee0edb9f ("KVM: arm64: Share the parts of
get/set events useful to 32bit") shares the get/set events
helper for arm64 and arm32, it is better also share the check
for vcpu events capability to enable 32 bit kvm vcpu events
support.

User space will check whether KVM supports vcpu events by checking
the KVM_CAP_VCPU_EVENTS extension

For the 32 bits kvm migration, it needs to enable the vcpu events,
this patch will enable it. The user space QEMU patch is here:

Oops. I evidently didn't test this bit. Looks like I just depended on the symbol
to be defined, I didn't check the CAP was exposed.

not just better, necessary for correctly-written user-space to know the feature
is supported. This last bit would be clearer as: "but forgot to share the cap
extension code."


Thanks for catching this!
