Yes. Just make sure KVM_MCE_MAX_BANK (better change to KVM_MCE_NR_BANK,
with MAX you never know if it's the index of the last bank or the number
of banks) doesn't conflict with any other MSRs.

Oh okay. So don't change them in this patch.

Right, but we can allocate the maximum number, no? it's a fairly small
amount of memory.

Yes, you're right.

kvm does feature negotiation (really, feature advertising) using
KVM_CAP_... and KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION. So there's no need for this.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
