BTW. there is currently no mechanism to fake absence of diag318. Should

Yes, we want to be able to disable diag318 via a CPU model feature. That actually
means that the kernel must not answer this if we disable it.

Correct. If the guest specifies diag318=off, then the instruction shouldn't be executed (it is fenced off in the kernel by checking the Read SCP Info bit).
