AIS was already being set as a KVM facility / allowed as QEMU capability
before this series, however there was a period of time where QEMU was
disabling it (disabled in QEMU 3f2d07b3b01e, enabled again in QEMU
a5c8617af691) which I suspect was the impetus for this kernel change;
this means that there are older machines that won't have it, but moving
forward we should be OK in the standard case. Of course the kernel
should still be able to tolerate the case where AIS is unavailable (old
machine, intentionally forced off, etc), so maybe the unlikely indeed
makes the most sense.

As far as a comment for the unlikely I could add something like 'some
virtualized environments may have disabled the AIS facility'?
