Right now, svm_hv_vmcb_dirty_nested_enlightenments has an incorrect
dereference of vmcb->control.reserved_sw before the vmcb is checked
for being non-NULL. The compiler is usually sinking the dereference
after the check; instead of doing this ourselves in the source,
ensure that svm_hv_vmcb_dirty_nested_enlightenments is only called
with a non-NULL VMCB.

From Hyper-V TLFS:
"The hypervisor exposes hypercalls (HvFlushVirtualAddressSpace,
HvFlushVirtualAddressSpaceEx, HvFlushVirtualAddressList, and
HvFlushVirtualAddressListEx) that allow operating systems to more
efficiently manage the virtual TLB. The L1 hypervisor can choose to
allow its guest to use those hypercalls and delegate the responsibility
to handle them to the L0 hypervisor. This requires the use of a
partition assist page."
Add the Direct Virtual Flush support for SVM.

Enlightened MSR-Bitmap as per TLFS:
"The L1 hypervisor may collaborate with the L0 hypervisor to make MSR
accesses more efficient. It can enable enlightened MSR bitmaps by setting
the corresponding field in the enlightened VMCS to 1. When enabled, L0
hypervisor does not monitor the MSR bitmaps for changes. Instead, the L1
hypervisor must invalidate the corresponding clean field after making
changes to one of the MSR bitmaps."
Enable this for SVM.
