Now we've cleared out the architecture-independent uses of
kvm_irqchip_in_kernel(), we can add a doc comment describing
what it means.

If you've cleared the arch-independent uses, can't it be moved out of
the generic kvm.h? Otherwise if just the commit message is confusing me:

Could we add a white line here...

...and here, to better group the macros and their documentation?

kvm_irqchip_in_kernel is still a generic service as it probes a generic
property - that just has arch-dependent detail semantics.
