Thanks Sean for picking these up!
The reason is, starting from this patch, I'm using guest_cpuid_has(CET)
to check the availability of guest CET CPUID, so logically I would like to let
the readers understand CET related CPUID word is
defined as above. But no problem, I can move these definitions to a
latter patch as the patchset only meaningful as a whole.

Sure, will change it.

Hmm, sounds like it's an unnecessary wrapper, will remove it, thanks!

Not sure I understand correctly, guest_cpu_has(CET) implies the check of
host CET status, if CET is off in host, CET MSRs won't exposed to L1
guest.

Do you mean prevent L1 using KVM_SET_CPUID{2} to expose CET feature bits to
L2?
