Yes, we can probably get away with a static capability (so userspace
knows that the interface is supported and CPUID bit can be set) and
check guest_cpuid_has() here but we don't have Hyper-V feature leaves
exposed as X86_FEATURE_* (yet). It is probably possible to implement an
interim solution by open coding the check with kvm_find_cpuid_entry() or
something like that.
