Sorry for forking a bunch of different threads, wanted to respond to the other
stuff before you signed off for the day.

Hmm, yes.

And I believe we can solve the avic_set_virtual_apic_mode() issue as well.  If
x2APIC is treated as an inhibit for xAPIC but not APICv at large, then setting the
inhibit will zap the SPTEs, and toggling the inhibit will force AVIC to re-assess
its VMCB controls without needing to hook ->set_virtual_apic_mode().

Roughly what I'm thinking.  I'll try to give this a shot today.
