What do you mean by "id of vcpu"?

One patch per email, with a cover letter.  Git can help you format and
send them:

  # format three patches, with a cover letter:
  $ git format-patch -3 --cover-letter -n -o patches
  # edit the cover letter:
  $ vi patches/0000-cover-letter-patch
  # post them:
  $ git send-email --to kvm@vger.kernel.org patches/*.patch

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
