http://xenbits.xensource.com/staging/xen-unstable.hg, changeset 15662. It's
rather large, and only run-tested on VT. :-) I'll try and do some SVM
testing at home, but it'd be great if you can give it a spin.

My only question is whether vmcb->exitintinfo is written on every vmexit,
even those where no event was being delivered. I assumed so, and hence do
not bother to zap the field before vmentry, but that'll need adding back in
if I'm wrong.

Yes, that was an embarrassing bug and not in Eric Liu's original patch!
