Re: [PATCH]0/2 Patches to furthure split kvm_init

Hi Xiantao,
it looks good to me to move kvm_vcpu_cache out to the x86 specific code, but I wanted to suggest to go a bit further.
After your patch the structure kvm_vcpu_cache is only in x86/svm/vmx.c so we could prevent mistakes in two ways.
I send two extension patches which will fit on top of your 2 patch queue as suggestion and therefore call them 3/2 and 4/2.

[3/2] move_kvm_cpu_cache_to_x86_header
To prevent misuse of these x86 structure in generic code the definition moved from kvm.h to x86.h.

[4/2] rename_kvm_cpu_cache_x86
Renamed the kvm_vcpu_cache structure to kvm_x86_vcpu_cache to make clear to anyone who see's that variable in the code in future that it's x86 only.
