If we had an empty enable_kvm_pv_eoi() stub, we would need an #ifdef
around the real implementation. I mean, I don't think this:

  #ifdef CONFIG_KVM
  int enable_kvm_pv_eoi() {
[...]
  }
  #endif

is any better than this:

  int enable_kvm_pv_eoi() {
  #ifdef CONFIG_KVM
[...]
  #endif
  }

So this is probably a good reason to duplicate the KVM_FEATURE_*
#defines in the QEMU code, instead?

   CONFIG_KVM is set, and probably won't even compile in non-Linux systems.
   
   I have a dejavu feeling. I believe we had this exact problem before,
   maybe about some other #defines that come from the Linux KVM headers and
   won't be available in non-Linux systems.
  
  It is better to hide all KVM related differences somewhere in the
  headers where no one sees them instead of sprinkle them all over the
  code. We can put those defines in include/sysemu/kvm.h in !CONFIG_KVM
  part. Or have one ifdef CONFIG_KVM at the beginning of the file and
  define enable_kvm_pv_eoi() there and provide empty stub otherwise.
 
 If we had an empty enable_kvm_pv_eoi() stub, we would need an #ifdef
 around the real implementation. I mean, I don't think this:
 
   #ifdef CONFIG_KVM
   int enable_kvm_pv_eoi() {
 [...]
   }
   #endif
 
You already have #ifdef CONFIG_KVM just above enable_kvm_pv_eoi(). Put
everything KVM related there instead of adding #ifdef CONFIG_KVM all
over the file.

 is any better than this:
 
   int enable_kvm_pv_eoi() {
   #ifdef CONFIG_KVM
 [...]
   #endif
   }
 
 So this is probably a good reason to duplicate the KVM_FEATURE_*
 #defines in the QEMU code, instead?
 
Not even duplicate, they can be fake just to keep compiler happy.

This patch eliminates the kvm_pv_eoi_features variable and 
simply uses
CONFIG_KVM and kvm_enabled() inside the enable_kvm_pv_eoi() 
compat
function, so it enables kvm_pv_eoi only if KVM is enabled. I 
believe
this makes the behavior of enable_kvm_pv_eoi() clearer and 
easier to
understand.

  We need it because KVM_FEATURE_PV_EOI is available only if 
  CONFIG_KVM is
  set.
  
  I could also write it as:
  
  if (kvm_enabled()) {
  #ifdef CONFIG_KVM
  kvm_default_features |= (1UL  KVM_FEATURE_PV_EOI);
  #endif
  }
  
  But I find it less readable.
  
  
 Why not define KVM_FEATURE_PV_EOI unconditionally?

It comes from the KVM kernel headers, that are included only if
CONFIG_KVM is set, and probably won't even compile in non-Linux systems.

But it also creates the need to write a separate stub function somewhere
else, while we could have a ready-to-use stub function automatically by
simply #ifdefing the whole function body. But anyway: this won't matter
if we choose the duplicate/fake #defines approach mentioned below.
