+1. I also think the inner perf_host_{enter,exit}() helpers are superflous.
These flows
After a bit of hacking, and with a few spoilers, this is what I ended up with
(not anywhere near fully tested). I like following KVM's kvm_xxx_{load,put}()
nomenclature to tie everything together, so I went with "guest" instead of
"host"
even though the majority of work being down is to shedule out/in host context.
