Well it won't return -EINVAL if you push in KVM_GUESTDBG_ENABLE or 0.

"Any unsupported flag will return -EINVAL. For now, only KVM_GUESTDBG_ENABLE is
supported, although it won't have any effects."

That makes me rather think that it is another flag.

We(s390x) use VALID_GUESTDBG_FLAGS, what about that or KVM_GUESTDBG_VALID_MASK?

I'd move that check directly to the start of the function and bail out on any
unsupported flag.
