set_msr_interception() is used by svm to set up which MSRs should be
intercepted. It can only fail if someone has changed the code to try
to intercept an MSR without updating the array of ranges.
The return value is ignored anyway: it should just BUG() if it doesn't
work. (A build-time failure would be better, but that's tricky).

kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log scans bitmap to see it it's all zero, but
doesn't use that information.
Avi says:
Looks like it was used to guard kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access();
optimizing the case where the guest just leaves the screen alone (which
it usually does, especially in benchmarks).
I'd rather reinstate that optimization. See
90cb0529dd where the damage was done.
It's pretty simple: if the bitmap is all zero, we don't need to do anything to
clean it.

Current kvm disables preemption while the new virtualization registers are
in use. This of course is not very good for latency sensitive workloads (one
use of virtualization is to offload user interface and other latency
insensitive stuff to a container, so that it is easier to analyze the
remaining workload). This patch re-enables preemption for kvm; preemption
is now only disabled when switching the registers in and out, and during
the switch to guest mode and back.

load_pdptrs can be handed an invalid cr3, and it should not oops.
This can happen because we injected #gp in set_cr3() after we set
vcpu->cr3 to the invalid value, or from kvm_vcpu_ioctl_set_sregs(), or
memory configuration changes after the guest did set_cr3().
We should also copy the pdpte array once, before checking and
assigning, otherwise an SMP guest can potentially alter the values
between the check and the set.
Finally one nitpick: ret = 1 should be done as late as possible: this
allows GCC to check for unset "ret" should the function change in
future.

According to latest memory ordering specification documents from Intel
and AMD, both manufacturers are committed to in-order loads from
cacheable memory for the x86 architecture. Hence, smp_rmb() may be a
simple barrier.
Also according to those documents, and according to existing practice in
Linux (eg. spin_unlock doesn't enforce ordering), stores to cacheable
memory are visible in program order too. Special string stores are safe
-- their constituent stores may be out of order, but they must complete
in order WRT surrounding stores. Nontemporal stores to WB memory can go
out of order, and so they should be fenced explicitly to make them
appear in-order WRT other stores. Hence, smp_wmb() may be a simple
barrier.

In userspace microbenchmarks on a core2 system, fence instructions range
anywhere from around 15 cycles to 50, which may not be totally
insignificant in performance critical paths (code size will go down
too).
However the primary motivation for this is to have the canonical barrier
implementation for x86 architecture.
smp_rmb on buggy pentium pros remains a locked op, which is apparently
required.

movnt* instructions are not strongly ordered with respect to other stores,
so if we are to assume stores are strongly ordered in the rest of the 64
bit code, we must fence these off (see similar examples in 32 bit code).
[ The AMD memory ordering document seems to say that nontemporal stores can
also pass earlier regular stores, so maybe we need sfences _before_
movnt* everywhere too? ]
