cpucfg6 checking will be added for PMU support soon. So it will be
         case 6:
             do something check for cpucfg6
             return mask;
         case 0 ... 1:
         case 3 ... 5:
         case 7 ... KVM_MAX_CPUCFG_REGS - 1:
       	    *v = U64_MAX;
             return 0;

If you think it is reasonable to add these separate "case" sentences, I 
have no objection.

  static int kvm_check_cpucfg(int id, u64 val)
  {
-	u64 mask;
-	int ret = 0;
-
-	if (id < 0 && id >= KVM_MAX_CPUCFG_REGS)
-		return -EINVAL;
you can modify && with ||, like this:
	if (id < 0 || id >= KVM_MAX_CPUCFG_REGS)
		return -EINVAL;

+	u64 mask = 0;
+	int ret;
