[RFC PATCH v3 3/5] kvm/x86: virtual suspend time injection: Add common definitions

Wed Oct 20 05:04:28 PDT 2021


Add definitions of MSR, KVM_FEATURE bit and a structure called
kvm_suspend_time that are used by later patches to support the
virtual suspend time injection mechanism.

Also add documentations for them.

Changes in v3:
- Moved the definition of struct kvm_suspend_time into this patch.
