This enables support for nested SVM using the regular CPU

'svm', then the '-enable-nesting' flag will be added to the
QEMU command line. Latest out of tree patches for nested
'vmx', no longer require the '-enable-nesting' flag. They
instead just look at the cpu features. Several of the models
already include svm support, but QEMU was just masking out
the svm bit silently. So this will enable SVM on such
models

Ouch.  -1 promotes to true.

Likewise.

You either need to change the return type to int and take a bool* parameter (return -1 on failure, 0 on success when *param was written to), or return an int value rather than a bool; since the caller needs to distinguish between feature-not-present and error-message-reported.

But this typedef is okay.

I probably would have used 'break' rather than 'goto cleanup', since it's shorter, but since you already have to have the label due to earlier code in the method, either way is fine.

Any reason you didn't put the new feature at the end of the list, in enum order?

This comment will be out-of-date once the vmx patches are no longer out of tree. Should we just say:

"Nested vmx support in qemu simply hooks off the CPU features"
