I see. Just ignored that the bit could extend 64 bits.

I still think we should get a unified APIC reg mask even for the extended
APIC with kvm_lapic_readable_reg_mask() helper. We can extend current
kvm_lapic_readable_reg_mask() and let it return a 128 bits bitmap, maybe
like this,

void kvm_lapic_readable_reg_mask(struct kvm_lapic *apic, u64 *mask)

This makes code more easily maintain.
