Yes, that's their current use, but if the interface structs: 

+struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_processor {
+       __u64 cpuid;
+       __u16 ibc;
+       __u8  pad[6];
+       __u64 fac_list[256];
+};
+
+/* kvm S390 machine related attributes are r/o */
+#define KVM_S390_VM_CPU_MACHINE                1
+struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_machine {
+       __u64 cpuid;
+       __u32 ibc_range;
+       __u8  pad[4];
+       __u64 fac_mask[256];
+       __u64 fac_list[256];
+};

are visible here, I'll reuse them... But stop, that will not work in the 
--disable-kvm case... I need them!
