One downside of packing all these together is that updating 'flags' now
requires an atomic rmw sequence (i.e. set_bit()). Then again, that's
probably for the best anyway given that kvm_vm_ioctl_enable_cap() looks
like it doesn't hold any locks.

Not an issue with this patch, but I just noticed that the
system_supports_mte() check is redundant here as we only allow the flag to
be set if that's already the case.
