Use a common X86_FEATURE_* flag for AMD's PSFD, and suppress it from /proc/cpuinfo via the standard method of an empty string instead of hacking in a one-off "private" #define in KVM. The request that led to KVM defining its own flag was really just that the feature not show up in /proc/cpuinfo, and additional patches+discussions in the interim have clarified that defining flags in cpufeatures.h purely so that KVM can advertise features to userspace is ok so long as the kernel already uses a word to track the associated CPUID leaf. No functional change intended.

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.
