api.rst says about KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION:
:Returns: 0 if unsupported; 1 (or some other positive integer) if supported
but if we can return a negative value, we can define flags for possible future
extensions
and flip the sign bit if we want to get rid of the storage key extension.
A bit ugly, but doesn't require any changes now.
