On VMX, I think the tracepoint can be moved below the VMWRITEs without much contention (though doing so is likely a nop), but moving it below kvm_load_guest_xsave_state() requires a bit more discussion.
Indeed; as a rule of thumb, the tracepoint on SVM could match the clgi/stgi region, and on VMX it could be placed in a similar location.

I 100% agree that the current behavior can be a bit confusing, but I wonder if we'd be better off "solving" that problem through documentation.
