Given that it must be aligned anyway, we can require it to be a 64-byte region and also require that the guest zero it before writing the MSR. That will give us a little more flexibility in the future.

Why is this needed? If all apfs are flushed at disable time, what do we need to wake up?

Need to list the MSR for save/restore/reset.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
