[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/1] KVM: PPC: Introduce KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM

[Sam Bobroff]

Introduce a new KVM capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM, that can be queried to
determine if a PowerPC KVM guest should use HTM (Hardware Transactional
Memory).

This will be used by QEMU to populate the pa-features bits in the
guest's device tree.
