Sets up the following facilities bits to enable the specified AP
facilities for the guest VM:
* STFLE.12: Enables the AP Query Configuration Information
facility. The AP bus running in the guest uses
the information returned from this instruction
to configure AP adapters and domains for the
guest machine.
* STFLE.15: Indicates the AP facilities test is available.
The AP bus running in the guest uses the
information.

With this all KVM guests will always have the AP instructions available, no?
In principles I like this approach, but it differs from the way z/VM does
things,
there the guest will get an exception if it tries to execute an AP instruction
if there are no AP devices assigned to the guest. I wonder if there is a reason
why z/VM does it the way it does.
