Current implementation uses it to set guest flags at the beginning of
a test.

Not for every vmentry, only for the first one. Doing it for every
vmentry without saving it first with vmcs_read would been incorrect.

It can, on the first launch. It is easy to add code to exit_handler() to
set current->guest_regs.rflags correctly before calling test's exit handler
and write GUEST_RFLAGS according to current->guest_regs.rflags after
exit handler returns, but as you say below test can do it by itself in
exit handler if it wishes so.

True, but to do it at the beginning of the test it will require to write
special init function even if non are needed otherwise. So you are
removing this functionality without clear benefit.
