Ok, do you want to send a follow-up or a v2 of this?

VMCS entry controls should be handled by macvm_set_cr0 as well, because
QEMU does not use any except for the LMA bit.  They are initialized zero

    wvmcs(cpu->hvf_fd, VMCS_ENTRY_CTLS,
	  cap2ctrl(hvf_state->hvf_caps->vmx_cap_entry, 0));

but in practice the last argument ends up being zero all the time.

PDPTEs are not a problem, because they are not used after reset (only if
CR4.PAE=CR4.PG=1 and EFER.LME=0).

Thanks,

Paolo
