(The 'u8 flags' discussion made me see that we just lost 21 bits here,
 but it seems worth the sacrifice.)

~~~ ~~ ~ HF_SMM_INSIDE_NMI_MASK.

(Looks like a use case for a new helper,
   __assign_bit(HF_SMM_INSIDE_NMI_MASK,
                &vcpu->arch.hflags,
                events->smi.smm_inside_nmi);)
