Yes, that's what I meant.  David pointed out that doesn't allow you to
disable halt polling altogether, but for that you can always ask each
VM's userspace one by one, or just not use KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL. (Also, I
don't know about Google's usecase, but mine was actually more about
using KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL to *disable* halt polling on some VMs!).
