My review feedback from the previous patch still applies as well,

I still think that we should either try a best effort approach to plug
this virtualization hole, or we at least should fail guest creation
if the virtualization hole is present as I said:

"Another, much simpler option is to fail the guest creation if the shadow stack + indirect branch tracking
state differs between host and the guest, unless both are disabled in the guest.
(in essence don't let the guest be created if (2) or (3) happen)"

Please at least tell me what do you think about this.

Best regards,
