But the commit sets the hardware DR6 not only when KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT, but also when KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED. The second case is unnecessary and just leads to a more case which leaks stale DR6 to the host which has to be resolved by unconditionally reseting DR6 in kvm_arch_vcpu_put(). We'd better to set the hardware DR6 only when KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT, so that we can fine-grain control the cases when we need to reset it which is done in later patch.
