I am not a big fan of doing everything in the kernel.
Here we have no performance issue since it is an error of the guest if 
it sends a wrong selector.

Even testing the facility or PV in the kernel is for my opinion arguable 
in the case we do not do any treatment in the kernel.

I do not see what it brings to us, it increase the LOCs and makes the 
implementation less easy to evolve.

Yes now it is a set to 0 but the action of clearing remains.

No strong opinion, if you prefer I change this.

I think you are right.

I like to say we write on "topo" with the size of "topo".
So we do not need to verify the effective size of topo.
But I understand, it is a UAPI, setting u8 in the copy_to_user makes 
sense too.
For my personal opinion, I would have prefer that userland tell us the 
size it awaits even here, for this special case, since we use a byte, we 
can not do really wrong.
