If you mean this:

https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/[email protected]/T/#m1dc7e08c54dd91d53a6bc5b1ed0a6721b356a756

I don't see any conclusion there.

I see Sean wanting to export information out of KVM to say what it supports
without adding user ABI and I don't know how far that has come but what you're
doing here ain't it.

Just do:

#define X86_FEATURE_BUS_LOCK_THRESHOLD    (15*32+29) /* Bus lock threshold */

and then later KVM can export this however it prefers.

Thx.
