Re: [PATCH v10 9/9] KVM: x86: Expose LAM feature to userspace VMM

[Sean Christopherson]

s/Expose/Advertise

And I would add an "enable" in there somehwere, because to Kai's point earlier in
the series about kvm_cpu_cap_has(), the guest can't actually use LAM until this
patch.  Sometimes we do just say "Advertise", but typically only for features
where there's not virtualization support, e.g. AVX instructions where the guest
can use them irrespective of what KVM says it supports.

This?

KVM: x86: Advertise and enable LAM (user and supervisor)
