s/that struct/kvm_vcpu_arch.  Forcing the reader to look at the subject to
understand the changelog is annoying, especially when it saves all of a handful
of characters.  E.g. I often read patches without the subject in scope.

Looks like these are always set as a pair, maybe add a helper, e.g.

static void kvm_set_l1_tsc_scaling_ratio(u64 ratio)
{
	vcpu->arch.l1_tsc_scaling_ratio = ratio;
	vcpu->arch.tsc_scaling_ratio = ratio;
}
