I would prefer to keep the register read visibile in this code so that it's
obvious what exactly is being read.  With this approach, it's not clear that KVM
is reading a GPR vs. VMCS vs. simply extracting "type" from "vmx_instruction_info".

And it's not just the INV* instruction, VMREAD and VMWRITE use the same encoding.

The hardest part is coming up with a name :-)  Maybe do the usually-ill-advised
approach of following the SDM verbatim?  Reg2 is common to all flavors, so this?

	gpr_index = vmx_get_instr_info_reg2(vmx_instruction_info);
	type = kvm_register_read(vcpu, gpr_index);

Hrm, I don't love this because it's not auto-updating in the unlikely chance that
a new type is added.  I definitely don't like open coding '3' either.  What about
going with a verbose option of

	if (type != INVPCID_TYPE_INDIV_ADDR &&
	    type != INVPCID_TYPE_SINGLE_CTXT &&
	    type != INVPCID_TYPE_ALL_INCL_GLOBAL &&
	    type != INVPCID_TYPE_ALL_NON_GLOBAL) {
		kvm_inject_gp(vcpu, 0);
		return 1;
	}

It's kind of gross, but gcc10 is smart enought to coalesce those all into a single
CMP <reg>, 3; JA <#GP>, i.e. the resulting binary is identical.
