Can you clarify what you mean by that? Do you mean that we need to check
both guest_cpuid_has and kvm_cpu_cap_has like the guest_can_use function
that is used in Weijiang Yang's series? Or is there something else I'm
omitting here?

static __always_inline bool guest_can_use(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu,
                                          unsigned int feature)
{
        return kvm_cpu_cap_has(feature) && guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, feature);
}
