When the guest asks to change the polarity this change
is forwarded to the admin using QAPI.
The admin is supposed to take according decisions concerning
CPU provisioning.

I somehow doubt that an average admin will monitor QEMU for such events ... 
so this rather should be handled by upper layers like libvirt one day?

I'd maybe rather call it CPU_POLARITY_CHANGE ... in case "polarity" is one 
day also used for some other devices.

Please elaborate: Where does the value come from (the PTF instruction)? 
Which values are possible?

Yes what about:

# @polarity: the guest can specify with the PTF instruction a horizontal
#            or a vertical polarity.
#	     On horizontal polarity the host is expected to provision
#            the vCPU equally.
#            On vertical polarity the host can provision each vCPU
#            differently
#            The guest can get information on the provisioning with
#            the STSI(15) instruction.

Maybe something like: "The guest can tell the host (via the PTF instruction) 
whether a CPU should have horizontal or vertical polarity." ?

> #         On horizontal polarity the host is expected to provision
> #            the vCPU equally.

Maybe: "all vCPUs equally" ?
Or: "each vCPU equally" ?

Yes thanks, much better.
