I saw this landed, but I'm not sure the wording is quite right.  I think 
it's at least missing what is being declared, so something like this

That said, I think we'd be better off just picking a different example 
extension to enable -- IMO this was less about the hypervisor extension 
and more about the syntax for enabling extensions, that's certianly what 
I end up looking at the docs for.  So IMO we'd be better off with 
something like

[PATCH] docs/system: riscv: Update description of CPU

2022-02-08 Thread Yu Li

Since the hypervisor extension been non experimental and enabled for
default CPU, the previous command is no longer available and the
option `x-h=true` or `h=true` is also no longer required.
