Hi Steven
I have left some minor comments below. Otherwise looks good to me.

All of the above wrappers seems to be the Realm VM related ones. Could
we move them to the KVM support patches ? They kind of look out of place
here ? That way we can maintain the logical separation of the series's
from that of the KVM support ?

This looks like should be part of the patch which introduced rmi_feat_reg?

super minor nit: Some slightly older toolchains can't tolerate these
variable declarations. May be a good idea to move them to the top.

minor nit :
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!RMI_DONATE_COUNT(donatereq)))
return 0;
and drop count ?
