Yes, KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE is generally not very interesting for
userspace.  But KVM_CPUID_FEATURES is called here:

        for (w = 0; w < FEATURE_WORDS; w++) {
            /* Override only features that weren't set explicitly
             * by the user.
             */
            env->features[w] |=
                x86_cpu_get_supported_feature_word(w, cpu->migratable) &
                ~env->user_features[w] & \
                ~feature_word_info[w].no_autoenable_flags;
        }
