Dave Martin 9df2d660c7 KVM: Clarify capability requirements for KVM_ARM_VCPU_FINALIZE
Userspace is only supposed to use KVM_ARM_VCPU_FINALIZE when there
is some vcpu feature that can actually be finalized.

This means that documenting KVM_ARM_VCPU_FINALIZE as available or
not depending on the capabilities present is not helpful.

This patch amends the documentation to describe availability in
terms of which capability is required for each finalizable feature
instead.

In any case, userspace sees the same error (EINVAL) regardless of
whether the given feature is not present or KVM_ARM_VCPU_FINALIZE
is not implemented at all.

No functional change.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
