We need to have an extra condition just because of this print ...
I removed the print altogether when applying -- I thought more about
that and it was aimed at people who wonder why AVIC was suddenly
disabled and it's unlikely that they will enable a debug message without
already knowing the reason,

Make sense. Thanks.


thanks.

A close contender was pr_info_once() here:

if (avic && !irqchip_split(vcpu->kvm))
pr_info_once(...)


Looks good.
