What exactly is your motivation to that ? I think mid/long-term
we should be making machine initialization more common among
architectures, not introducing more arch specific, or even worse, kvm
specific parameters here.


A general note: there are several ways of being "kvm specific"; one of them is being tied to the implementation of kvm as the implementation of a virtual cpu in qemu. Another, with an example here, is a cpu feature that is only (or at first) present in kvm, but in principle may be supported by any cpu implementation, like tcg or a real cpu. It's important not to confuse the two; only the first needs all those hooks tied into the -accel infrastructure.
