I wonder if you should depend on CONFIG_KVM or not. If tcg gets topology
support it will use the same event and right now it would just never be emitted.
On the other hand it's more conservative this way.

I also wonder if you should add 'feature' : [ 'unstable' ].
On the upside, it would mark the event as unstable, but I don't know what the
consequences are exactly.
Also I guess one can remove qemu events without breaking backwards compatibility,
since they just won't be emitted? Unless I guess you specify that a event must
occur under certain situations and the client waits on it?

Patch looks good.
