Removing these two lines from the initialization of
field_to_offset_table[] means that vmcs_field_to_offset() will return
-ENOENT for IO_BITMAP_A or IO_BITMAP_B. Hence, handle_vmread and
handle_vmwrite will incorrectly report these fields as unsupported
VMCS components if an L1 hypervisor tries to access them.
I will fix in v2.

Since KVM removes the only I/O port 0x80 bypass on Intel hosts,
clear CPU_BASED_USE_IO_BITMAPS and set CPU_BASED_UNCOND_IO_EXITING
bit. Then these I/O permission bitmaps are not used at all, so
drop I/O permission bitmaps.

These two lines should stay.
Jim, could you explain why these two lines should stay?
IIUC, the main concern is from nested virtualization, which still uses
io_bitmap_a/io_bitmap_b..
if so, we really need to further clean up these code, as
CPU_BASED_USE_IO_BITMAPS is clear, and CPU_BASED_UNCOND_IO_EXITING is set
for both L0/L2. after new patches which I mentioned
in this thread.
right?
