I don't think vmcb.h is a good name.  The logical inclusion sequence would be for
svm.h to include vmcb.h, e.g. SVM requires knowledge about VMCBs, but this requires
vmcb.h to include svm.h to dereference "struct vcpu_svm".

Unlike VMX's vmcs.h, the new file isn't a "pure" VMCB helper, it also holds a
decent amount of KVM's SVM logic.

What about making KVM self-sufficient?  The includes in asm-offsets.c are quite
ugly

 #include "../kvm/vmx/vmx.h"
 #include "../kvm/svm/svm.h"

or as a stopgap to make backporting easier, just include kvm_cache_regs.h?

This should include "svm.h" instead of relying on the parent to include said file.
