Hi Anup,
I am no native English speaker, but this is my attempt at improving the descriptions:

If I understood correctly:
To implement target type KVM_ARM_TARGET_HOST we change
the "struct kvm_cpu_init" input parameter into an in/out
parameter, so that KVM ARM/ARM64 can inform user space about
the chosen target type.

This ioctl returns an updated struct kvm_vcpu_init informing about the
