HOST_RIP is so large that this array becomes large. Also there are
unused elements in this array because field encoding is not indexed
constantly.
Instead, how about defining the numbr of vmcs fields, 152?, as a
specific constant, indexing each fields using integers and newly
preparing index_to_field_table[]?
Thanks.
