The error messages say "directly", wheras this says "natively". I don't have a
strong preference, but they should use the same terminology. I'll go with
"direct", because "native" has paravirt connotations that could confuse things.

Rather than clobber actual_value, incorporate the get() in the report, e.g.
report(get_host_value(vmcs_field, &actual_value) || actual_value == value

Print the actual value as well, otherwise debugging is painful (well, more painful).

It's not via "guest", it's via the HOST_xxx fields in the VMCS. test_host_value_vmcs()?

This should be value, not TEST_VALUE2. Ditto below. The whole @value idea is
rather pointless though. There's one caller, and it passes one value. The only
requirement is that the "direct" vs. "vmcs" settings use different values, e.g.
to avoid false passes. To handle that, just use more descriptive names for the
#defines.
