Emm, I don't understand this. I tried to modified and compiled, all need to do 
is simply substitute "vcpu" with "vcpu->arch.cpu_caps" in calling. (at the end 
is my diff based on this patch set)

My point is also from vulnerability, long term, since as a principle, we'd 
better pass in param/info to a function of its necessity. e.g. cpuid_entry2_find().
Anyway, this is a less important point, shouldn't distract your focus.

This patch set's whole idea is good, I also felt confusion when initially 
looking into vCPUID code and its complicated dependencies with each other and 
KVM cap (or your word govern)  ( and even Kernel govern and HW cap ?). With this 
guest_cap[], the layered relationship can be much clearer, alone with fast guest 
cap queries.
