Looks good to me AFAICS without access to the architecture.

Should we document this in Documentation/virt/kvm/api.rst?

(Documentation of KVM caps generally seems to be a bit of a
hit-and-miss, though. But we could at least document the s390 ones :)

I also noticed that the new entries for the vcpu resets and pv do not
seem to be in proper rst format. Maybe fix that and add the new doc in
an add-on series?
