Set/Way handling is one of the ugliest corners of KVM. We shouldn't have to handle that, but better safe than sorry. Thankfully, FWB fixes this for us by not requiering any maintenance whatsoever, which means we don't have to emulate S/W CMOs, and don't have to track VM ops either. We still have to trap S/W though, if only to prevent the guest from doing something bad.
