   - Unroll string MMIO for encrypted SEV guests as the hypervisor
     cannot emulate it.

   - Handle supervisor states correctly in the FPU/XSTATE code so it
     takes the feature set of the fpstate buffer into account. The
     feature sets can differ between host and guest buffers. Guest

     offset calculation and in the permission bitmaps.

   - Avoid a gazillion of repeated CPUID invocations in by caching the
     values early in the FPU/XSTATE code.
