Add handling for Control Protection (#CP) exceptions(vector 21).
The new vector is introduced for Intel's Control-Flow Enforcement

Although #CP belongs contributory exception class, but the actual
effect is conditional on CET being exposed to guest. If CET is not
available to guest, #CP falls back to non-contributory and doesn't
have an error code.
This sounds weird. is this the hardware behavior? If yes, could you
point us to where this behavior is documented?
It's not SDM documented behavior.
The #CP behavior needs to be documented. Please pester whoever you need to in
order to make that happen.
Do you mean documentation for #CP as an generic exception or the
behavior in KVM as
this patch shows?
