I've gone back and forth on where to declare scoped varaibles, but in this case,
I think it makes sense to declare "gpa" inside the if-statement. Making it
visible at the function scope when it's valid in a _super_ limited case is bound
to cause issues.

Of course, this code goes away by the end of the series, so that point is moot.
But on the other hand, declaring the variable in the if-statement is desirable
as the churn is precisely limited to the code that's being changed.

Again a moot point, but IMO using a ternary operator here makes it unnecessarily
difficult to see that gpa is valid if and only if the exit was an EPT misconfig.

gpa_t gpa = INVALID_GPA;

if (exit_reason.basic == EXIT_REASON_EPT_MISCONFIG)
gpa = vmcs_read64(GUEST_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS);

No need for the cast.
