[RFC,ppc-next,5/6] kvm: export result of irqchip config check

This allows platform code to register in-kernel irqchips that
don't use the legacy KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP/KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP interface.

Does x86 have the required checks then to make sure it has the CAP?

To my understanding, x86 won't evaluate this new flag but continue to
bail out from this service early.

However, invoking something that is called "create" to just end up with
a set flag "wanted" and then do the creation elsewhere is not a very
beautiful design.

Yeah. This should probably be

  kvm_irqchip_wanted(KVMState *s) {
    if (!kvm_arch_irqchip_available(s))
      return false;
    
    return qemu_opt_get_bool("kernel_irqchip", true);
  }

with kvm_arch_irqchip_available checking for KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP on x86 and the respective device creation capability on ppc.
