Sane L1 hypervisors are not supposed to turn any of the unsupported VMX
controls on for its guests and nested_vmx_check_controls() checks for
that. This is, however, not the case for the controls which are supported
on the host but are missing in enlightened VMCS and when eVMCS is in use.
It would certainly be possible to add these missing checks to
nested_check_vm_execution_controls()/_vm_exit_controls()/.. but it seems
preferable to keep eVMCS-specific stuff in eVMCS and reduce the impact on
non-eVMCS guests by doing less unrelated checks. Create a separate
nested_evmcs_check_controls() for this purpose.

With fine grained VMX feature enablement QEMU>=4.2 tries to do KVM_SET_MSRS
with default (matching CPU model) values and in case eVMCS is also enabled,
fails.
It would be possible to drop VMX feature filtering completely and make
this a guest's responsibility: if it decides to use eVMCS it should know
which fields are available and which are not. Hyper-V mostly complies to
this, however, there are some problematic controls:
SECONDARY_EXEC_VIRTUALIZE_APIC_ACCESSES
VM_{ENTRY,EXIT}_LOAD_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL
which Hyper-V enables. As there are no corresponding fields in eVMCS, we
can't handle this properly in KVM. This is a Hyper-V issue.
Move VMX controls sanitization from nested_enable_evmcs() to vmx_get_msr(),
and do the bare minimum (only clear controls which are known to cause issues).
This allows userspace to keep setting controls it wants and at the same
time hides them from the guest.

Hyper-V provides direct tlb flush function which helps
L1 Hypervisor to handle Hyper-V tlb flush request from
L2 guest. Add the function support for VMX.

When Enlightened VMCS is in use, it is valid to do VMCLEAR and,
according to TLFS, this should "transition an enlightened VMCS from the
active to the non-active state". It is, however, wrong to assume that
it is only valid to do VMCLEAR for the eVMCS which is currently active
on the vCPU performing VMCLEAR.
Currently, the logic in handle_vmclear() is broken: in case, there is no
active eVMCS on the vCPU doing VMCLEAR we treat the argument as a 'normal'
VMCS and kvm_vcpu_write_guest() to the 'launch_state' field irreversibly
corrupts the memory area.
So, in case the VMCLEAR argument is not the current active eVMCS on the
vCPU, how can we know if the area it is pointing to is a normal or an
enlightened VMCS?
Thanks to the bug in Hyper-V (see commit 72aeb60c52 ("KVM: nVMX: Verify
eVMCS revision id match supported eVMCS version on eVMCS VMPTRLD")) we can
not, the revision can't be used to distinguish between them. So let's
assume it is always enlightened in case enlightened vmentry is enabled in
the assist page. Also, check if vmx->nested.enlightened_vmcs_enabled to
minimize the impact for 'unenlightened' workloads.

The header, evmcs.h, already exists and contains a fair amount of code,
but there are a few pieces in vmx.c that can be moved verbatim. In
addition, move an array definition to evmcs.c to prepare for multiple
consumers of evmcs.h.
