Tom Lendacky 861377730a KVM: SVM: Provide support for SEV-ES vCPU loading
An SEV-ES vCPU requires additional VMCB vCPU load/put requirements. SEV-ES
hardware will restore certain registers on VMEXIT, but not save them on
VMRUN (see Table B-3 and Table B-4 of the AMD64 APM Volume 2), so make the
following changes:

General vCPU load changes:
  - During vCPU loading, perform a VMSAVE to the per-CPU SVM save area and
    save the current values of XCR0, XSS and PKRU to the per-CPU SVM save
    area as these registers will be restored on VMEXIT.

General vCPU put changes:
  - Do not attempt to restore registers that SEV-ES hardware has already
    restored on VMEXIT.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
