Subject: [PATCH] KVM: VMX: make vmx_init a late init call to get to init process faster
Date: Sat, 23 Mar 2024 09:05:42 +0100

From: Colin Ian King <colin.i.king@intel.com>

Making vmx_init a late initcall improves QEMU kernel boot times to
get to the init process. Average of 100 boots, QEMU boot average
reduced from 0.776 seconds to 0.622 seconds (~19.8% faster) on
Alder Lake i9-12900 and ~0.5% faster for non-QEMU UEFI boots.
