Since the meaning of KVM_DIRTY_LOG_MANUAL_CAPS will change accordingly in
different archs, we can use it in kvm_vm_ioctl_enable_cap_generic, how about:

I did some tests on x86, and it works. Looks good to me.

But, I see include/linux/kvm_host.h has already included asm/kvm_host.h in the
upstream. Do I understand your meaning correctly?
