There are two capabilities related to ring-based dirty page tracking: KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING and KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_ACQ_REL. Both are supported by x86. However, arm64 supports KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_ACQ_REL only when the feature is supported on arm64. The userspace doesn't have to enable the advertised capability, meaning KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING can be enabled on arm64 by userspace and it's wrong. Fix it by double checking if the capability has been advertised prior to enabling it. It's rejected to enable the capability if it hasn't been advertised.
