APICV_INHIBIT_REASON_HYPERV is currently unconditionally forced upon SynIC activation as SynIC's AutoEOI is incompatible with APICv/AVIC. It is, however, possible to track whether the feature was actually used by the guest and only inhibit APICv/AVIC when needed. The feature can be tested with QEMU's 'hv-passthrough' debug mode. Note, 'avic' kvm-amd module parameter is '0' by default and thus needs to be explicitly enabled.
