[PATCH v3 0/4] KVM: nVMX: Enlightened MSR Bitmap feature for Hyper-V on KVM

[Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>]

Changes since v2:
- Renamed 'msr_bitmap_changed' to 'msr_bitmap_force_recalc' [Paolo] and
  expanded the comment near its definition explaining its limited 
  usefulness [Sean].

Original description:

Updating MSR bitmap for L2 is not cheap and rearly needed. TLFS for Hyper-V
offers 'Enlightened MSR Bitmap' feature which allows L1 hypervisor to
inform L0 when it changes MSR bitmap, this eliminates the need to examine
L1's MSR bitmap for L2 every time when 'real' MSR bitmap for L2 gets
constructed.

When the feature is enabled for Win10+WSL2, it shaves off around 700 CPU
cycles from a nested vmexit cost (tight cpuid loop test).

First patch of the series is unrelated to the newly implemented feature,
it fixes a bug in Enlightened MSR Bitmap usage when KVM runs as a nested
hypervisor on top of Hyper-V.

Vitaly Kuznetsov (4):
  KVM: nVMX: Don't use Enlightened MSR Bitmap for L3
  KVM: VMX: Introduce vmx_msr_bitmap_l01_changed() helper
  KVM: nVMX: Track whether changes in L0 require MSR bitmap for L2 to be
    rebuilt
  KVM: nVMX: Implement Enlightened MSR Bitmap feature
