[PATCH v3 1/6] KVM: x86: return 1 unconditionally for availability of KVM_CAP_VAPIC

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Thu Feb 17 2022 - 13:08:45 EST


The two ioctl used to implement userspace-accelerated TPR,
KVM_TPR_ACCESS_REPORTING and KVM_SET_VAPIC_ADDR, are available
even if hardware-accelerated TPR can be used. So there is
no reason not to report KVM_CAP_VAPIC.
