Just to educate myself,

in both cases 'index' is equal to 'msr - HV_X64_MSR_CRASH_P0' where
'msr' is constrained:
  case HV_X64_MSR_CRASH_P0 ... HV_X64_MSR_CRASH_P4:
         ....

and moreover, kvm_hv_{get,set}_msr_common() is only being called for a
narrow set of MSRs. How can an atacker overcome these limitations?
