Uh, it's Jim and we have worked together on many KVM issues.

BTW, I'm not sure why we prefer:

#define X86_FEATURE_AVX512_FP16		(18*32+23) /* AVX512 FP16 */
#define X86_FEATURE_SPEC_CTRL		(18*32+26) /* "" Speculation Control (IBRS + IBPB) */
+#define X86_FEATURE_AMX_BF16		(18*32+22) /* AMX bf16 Support */
+#define X86_FEATURE_AMX_TILE		(18*32+24) /* AMX tile Support */
+#define X86_FEATURE_AMX_INT8		(18*32+25) /* AMX int8 Support */

rather than:

+#define X86_FEATURE_AMX_BF16        (18*32+22) /* AMX bf16 Support */
 #define X86_FEATURE_AVX512_FP16		(18*32+23) /* AVX512 FP16 */
+#define X86_FEATURE_AMX_TILE        (18*32+24) /* AMX tile Support */
+#define X86_FEATURE_AMX_INT8        (18*32+25) /* AMX int8 Support */

It would make more sense to put them in order, what do you think? Need v3 to 
sort it ?

Thanks,
Like Xu
