No use for me whatsoever as I only want to disable real more handlers and
keep virtual mode handlers enabled (sometime, for debug only) and this
capability is not about that - I can easily just not enable it in QEMU with
the exactly the same effect.

So please, fellas, decide whether I should iterate vcpu's or add ENABLE_CAP
per KVM. Thanks.
