This structure will replace vmcb_control_area in svm_nested_state, providing only the fields that are actually used by the nested state. This avoids having and copying around uninitialized fields. The cost of this, however, is that all functions (in this case vmcb_is_intercept) expect the old structure, so they need to be duplicated. In addition, in svm_get_nested_state() user space expects a vmcb_control_area struct, so we need to copy back all fields in a temporary structure before copying it to userspace.

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.
