I will return the -errno error code here.

I will move the patch that handles the structure initialisation before
this one and I will remove those checks. Thanks for the suggestion !

I thought that it is sufficient to verify that it has the device
attributes for *PVTIME. I will add this check too, thanks for the
suggestion !

Hmm, I didn't propagate the error code from kvm_cpu__setup_pvtime()
because if this feature is not supported it will hit:"Unable to
initialise vcpu".

But I guess that now we can propagate the error code as we have '--no-pvtime'
command argument. What do you think ?

I will move this.
