[PATCH 00/15] KVM: x86: VMX: Fix MSR namespacing

[Sean Christopherson]

This series attempts to clean up VMX's MSR namespacing, which is in
unimitigated disaster (keeping things PG).

There are a variety of ways VMX saves and restores guest MSRs, all with
unique properties and mechanisms, but with haphazard namespacing (assuming
there is any namespacing at all).  Some fun collisions:

  __find_msr_index(), find_msr_entry() and vmx_find_msr_index()

  vmx_set_guest_msr() and vmx_set_msr() 

  structs vmx_msrs, vmx_msr_entry, shared_msr_entry, kvm_shared_msrs and
  kvm_shared_msrs_values

  vcpu_vmx fields guest_msrs, msr_autoload.guest and msr_autostore.guest

Probably the most infurating/confusing nomenclature is "index", which can
mean MSR's ECX index, index into one of several VMX arrays, or index into
a common x86 array.  __find_msr_index() even manages to mix at least three
different meanings in about as many lines of code.

The biggest change is to rename the "shared MSRs" mechanism to "user
return MSRs" (details in patch 1), most everything else is either derived
from that rename or is fairly straightforward cleanup.

No true functional changes, although the update_transition_efer() change
in patch 10 dances pretty close to being a functional change.
