Ah, I didn't know this should be avoided. Thanks for the info!

I also feel that adding a new hypercall is too much here. A
KVM-specific solution is definitely better, and the eBPF based
approach you mentioned sounds like the ultimate solution (at least for
inspecting exit reasons).

+Suleiman What do you think? The on-going work Sean described sounds
promising, perhaps we should put this patch aside for the time being.
