If you want to live dangerously, you can use text_poke_early to change
the vmwrite to mov. It's just a single instruction, so it's probably
not too hard.

Maybe we should use a single "#include"d file (like vmx_shadow_fields.h)
and share it between HV-on-KVM and KVM-on-HV.

We shouldn't use these on Hyper-V, should we (that is, shouldn't the
WARN below fire if you try---and so why include them at all)?

You can mark this __always_inline, and make it

if (clean_field)
*clean_field = evmcs_field >> 16;

or alternatively, use a two-element struct and do

evmcs_field = &vmcs_field_to_evmcs_1[index];
if (clean_field)
*clean_field = evmcs_field->clean_field;
return evmcs_field->offset;

Also, if you return int and make the WARN_ONCE case return -ENOENT, GCC
should be able to optimize out the "if (!offset)" (which becomes "if
(offset < 0)") in the callers. Nitpicking, but...

How can these be set?

-ENODEV? Maybe add a printk, because this is really rare.

Why not do it in setup_vmcs_config after the vmcs_conf->vmentry_ctrl
assignment (and pass &vmcs_config, which there is "vmcs_conf", directly
to the function)? And if sanitizing clears the bits in vmentry_ctl and
vmexit_ctl, there's no need to clear cpu_has_load_perf_global_ctrl.

This is wrong, we're reading the VMCS so the values must already be
sanitized (and if not, that's the bug and we want dump_vmcs to print the
"wrong" values).

(If you use text_poke_early, you can do this assignment unconditionally,
since it's just a single lea instruction).

A bit nicer to clear enlightened_vmcs in the "else" branch?

That's it. Nice work!
