hmm, by checking the comments in kvm.h, I cannot infer desc->offset
should be added with header->data_offset. So, could you add the
following commit into your series. I feel that we need to improve
readability a little bit. Existing comments for kvm_stats_desc is not
quite helpful for users.

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: stats: improve readability of kvm_stats_header and
kvm_stats_desc
Some comments on these data structures are not quite helpful from user
perspective. For instance, kvm_stats_header->name_size was shared across
all stats. This might be a little bit counter-intuitive, since each stat
should have a different name length. So it has to be the maximum length of
the stats string. We cannot infer that by just reading the comments without
going through the implementation. In addition, kvm_stat_desc->offset is a
relative offset base on kvm_stats_header->data_offset. It is better to call
it out clearly in comments.
Update the comments of the fields in these two data structures.
