All done with this pass. Looks quite good, nothing on the KVM side scares me. Nice!
I haven't spent much time thinking about whether or not the overall implementation
correct/optimal, i.e. I mostly just reviewed the mechanics. I'll make sure to
spend a bit more time on that for the next RFC.
Please be sure to rebase to kvm-x86/next for the next RFC, there are a few patches
that will change quite a bit.
