No whitespace before "on", please.

Pre-existing: several entires in the section have the same issue,
feel free to fix them (in a separate patch).

Again pre-existing: what does the first version number refer to? It
would be nice to have it spelled out.

Since you're touching this anyway, you can take the opportunity to
rewrite it as

  VIR_ENUM_IMPL(virDomainHyperv, VIR_DOMAIN_HYPERV_LAST,
    ...
    "tlbflush",
    "ipi",
  );

so that the next patch and any subsequent ones will look nicer.

I'm going to assume the magic numbers here are correct :)

Everything else looks good.
