Could this be expanded a bit - so one doesn't have to chase into the bz
in order to understand what is/was being fixed?

So if I understand correctly the above loop removes not migrate-able
features - from the passed in migrated cpu and the loop below is
updating features for anything left.

So given my question from patch 1/2 - it seems if features weren't
allowed for host-passthrough, well then neither of these would be
necessary.

In any case - even if we added something that removed features, the
incoming, saved/restore, etc. guest with host-passthrough could still
have it so this would be necessary - which I guess means it's an ACK
(typing and thinking).
