"KVM: nVMX:" for the scope.
The shortlog is also a bit confusing. I usually think of "set == write", i.e.
I expected VMWRITEs in the diff. The nested_vmx_vmexit() case in particular is
gnarly because the actual VMWRITEs aren't captured in the diff's context.
What about combining this with the next patch that exposes the feature to L1?
E.g. "KVM: nVMX: Enable nested TSC scaling" or so.
That would avoid bikeshedding the meaning of "set", fix the goof in the next patch's
shortlog (KVM exposes the feature to L1, not L2), and eliminate an unnecessary
patch for bisection purposes. Bisecting to a patch that exposes the feature but
doesn't introduce any actual functionality isn't all that helpful, e.g. if there
is a bug in _this_ patch then bisection will arguably point at the wrong patch.
