Sure, works for me. Do we need to keep a trace of the available
options? I'm not sure how a user is supposed to find out about those
(I always end-up grepping through the code base, and something tells
me I'm doing it wrong...). The QMP stuff flies way over my head.

Happy to merge things more, though using qdev_property_add_static()
feels a bit odd here (I have to forcefully replicate the probed state
into the cpu->prop_pauth property in order to have a sensible default
on KVM).

Anyway, I'll post something with this hack, and we add another coat of
paint to the bike shed! ;-)

Yup, works nicely, and allows for some further cleanups.

Actually, this can go altogether, as it can now be made static in
kvm64.c and not be visible outside of the KVM code at all.

Thanks a lot for the review and the guidance!
