What's that dance and acrn_cpuid_base static thing needed for? Why not
simply:
cpuid_eax(ACRN_CPUID_FEATURES) & ...
?

Also, if you're going to need more of those bit checkers acrn_is_<something>
which look at ACRN_CPUID_FEATURES, just stash CPUID_0x40000001_EAX locally and
use a
acrn_has(ACRN_FEATURE_PRIVILEGED_VM)
which does the bit testing.
