Given that it must be aligned anyway, we can require it to be a 64-byte 
region and also require that the guest zero it before writing the MSR.  
That will give us a little more flexibility in the future.

May be a lengthy synchronous operation.  I guess we don't care.

That memset again.

Note: we need to handle the memory being removed from underneath 
kvm_gfn_to_hve_cache().  Given that, we can just make 
kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init() return void.  "success" means nothing when 
future changes can invalidate it.

Why is this needed?  If all apfs are flushed at disable time, what do we 
need to wake up?

Need to list the MSR for save/restore/reset.
