In v1, please do this for SVM as well :)
Why? KVM caches values on VMX because VMREAD is measurable slower than memory
accesses, especially when running nested. SVM has no such problems. I wouldn't
be surprised if adding a "cache" is actually less performant due to increased
pressure and misses on the hardware cache.
My understanding was that this patch wasn't about caching it, it was
about storing it somewhere generically so we can use it for the fault
injection code path in the following patch. And if we don't set this
variable for SVM, it just means Credential Guard fault injection would
be broken there.
