Thanks for pointing out.

This one requires a separate change, not related to this patch.

This is done in the patch. Not sure how it appears in your list.

These two should be fixed in a separate change.

Also this kind of stuff:

	bitmap_copy(kvm->arch.cpu_feat, (unsigned long *) data.feat,
	            KVM_S390_VM_CPU_FEAT_NR_BITS);

might require a new API like

bitmap_from_u64_array()
bitmap_to_u64_array()

Yury?
