The non-x86 part of this series is wholly contained in patch 01. Compared to other recent kvm-wide changes, this one is very straightforward (famous last words). Like a few other architectures, e.g. PPC, x86 uses a set of global hooks to call back into vendor code on demand. A handlful of the x86 hooks are used only within the scope of kvm_init(). This series moves the init-only hooks to a separate struct, partly to clean up the code a bit, but mainly so that the runtime hooks can be made available only after the x86 vendor has completed its ->hardware_setup(). While working on a different series I spent a fair bit of time scratching my as to why a kvm_x86_ops wasn't working, and eventually realized VMX's callback wasn't "ready" because the vmcs_config hadn't yet been populated. Due to lack of a cross-compiling setup, the non-x86 changes in patch 01 are untested. The SVM changes in patch 02 are fairly well tested, e.g. fudged things enough to ensure KVM didn't explode on a null pointer. Patch 05 is a bit scary as a rogue dereference of kvm_x86_ops before ->hardware_setup() will crash KVM (maybe the kernel?). I didn't find any obvious ways to use kvm_x86_ops on AMD, and tested on a few different Intel CPUs, so I'm reasonably confident that there are no existing violations.
