Having the lapic_in_kernel check in your code is a bit ugly - the caller
should check it.  And actually, even though it doesn't check it right
now, svm_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl is only reachable if lapic_in_kernel
returns true; see the KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC case of
kvm_vcpu_ioctl_enable_cap.

What about this simpler patch:

diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/svm.c b/arch/x86/kvm/svm.c

 static void svm_load_eoi_exitmap(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, u64
*eoi_exit_bitmap)

?

Thanks,
