Convert vcpu_vmx.exit_reason from a u32 to a union (of size u32). The full VM_EXIT_REASON field is comprised of a 16-bit basic exit reason in bits 15:0, and single-bit modifiers in bits 31:16. Historically, KVM has only had to worry about handling the "failed VM-Entry" modifier, which could only be set in very specific flows and required dedicated handling. I.e. manually stripping the FAILED_VMENTRY bit was a somewhat viable approach. But even with only a single bit to worry about, KVM has had several bugs related to comparing a basic exit reason against the full exit reason store in vcpu_vmx. Upcoming Intel features, e.g. SGX, will add new modifier bits that can be set on more or less any VM-Exit, as opposed to the significantly more restricted FAILED_VMENTRY, i.e. correctly handling everything in one-off flows isn't scalable. Tracking exit reason in a union forces code to explicitly choose between consuming the full exit reason and the basic exit, and is a convenient way to document and access the modifiers. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
