Ah, so we get the exit already, but don't handle it? That's an important piece of information that belongs in the patch description. Another thing I as a reader would also like to know is where this got triggered, so which guests would break without the patch. I'm also wondering why nobody has seen it before. Is this a regression? Is this exit a side-effect of another feature bit of VMX, so only newer CPUs are affected?
