Return a uint64_t from vcpu_get_reg() instead of having the caller provide a pointer to storage, as none of the vcpu_get_reg() usage in KVM selftests accesses a register larger than 64 bits, and vcpu_set_reg() only accepts a 64-bit value. If a use case comes along that needs to get a register that is larger than 64 bits, then a utility can be added to assert success and take a void pointer, but until then, forcing an out param yields ugly code and prevents feeding the output of vcpu_get_reg() into vcpu_set_reg().

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 reStructuredText 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.
