Hmm.  I suppose we have the same in libxl_cpuid.c so we should do so here.

I'll do an adjustment.

I was looking to avoid the other BUILD_BUG_ON()'s, and in particular
bringing in known_features just for a build time check.

Given that there's only one instance right now, and no obvious other
usecase, I'd say this is better.  In terms of just xen-cpuid.c, it's
clearly correct whereas leaving it implicitly to
INIT_FEATURE_VAL_TO_NAME is not.

Without this, you get a bunch of numbers when rendering e1d for known
features (all hardware), and all dynamic policies on AMD/Hygon hardware.
