Hi, Attached patch implements the VMCB cleanbits SVM feature. Upcoming AMD CPUs introduce them and they are basically hints for the CPU which vmcb values can be re-used from the previous VMRUN instruction. Each bit represents a certain set of fields in the VMCB. Setting a bit tells the cpu it can re-use the cached value from the previous VMRUN. Clearing a bit tells the cpu to reload the values from the given VMCB.
