This struct is only defined if CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT is set, but 
here it
is always accessed. Will break on !x86&&  !s390.

Yes! I forgot about archs in init function.
How about having
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT
vcpu->ple.cpu_relax_intercepted = false;
vcpu->ple.dy_eligible = false;
#endif

This would solve all the problem.

dito

currently vcpu_on_spin is used only by x86 and s390. so if some other
arch in future uses vcpu_on_spin, I believe they also have to enable
CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT
what do you think?

otherwise we have to add hook everywhere

again.

maybe define static inline access functions in kvm_host.h that are no-ops
if CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT is not set.
