Although well-intentioned, keeping the KF() definition as a hint for handling scattered CPUID features may be counter-productive. Simply redefining the bit position only works for directly manipulating the guest's CPUID leafs, e.g. it doesn't make guest_cpuid_has() magically work. Taking an alternative approach, e.g. ensuring the bit position is identical between the Linux-defined and hardware-defined features, may be a simpler and/or more effective method of exposing scattered features to the guest.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
