at the process

 Yes, it's your system logger filling in the blanks, but it didn't
 really get it wrong, as the process name is actually "passt.avx2" if
 the AVX2-enabled build starts. Look at this, cough cough, beauty in
 arch.c:

   https://passt.top/passt/tree/arch.c#n21

 "passt.avx2" wasn't intended in any case. 
Oh, I see now that I actually have passt.avx2 running, despite the
output of ps hiding this fact:

  $ ps aux | grep bin/passt
  qemu   173991   [...]   /usr/bin/passt [...]
  $ sudo ls -l /proc/173991/exe
  [...]   /proc/173991/exe -> /usr/bin/passt.avx2

So it looks like everything is indeed working as intended :)
