You mean we'll be using:
"hv_evmcs_ptr == 0" meaning "no evmcs" (like now)
"hv_evmcs_ptr == -1" meaing "evmcs not yet mapped" (and
nested_evmcs_is_used() will check for both '0' and '-1')
"hv_evmcs_ptr == anything else" - eVMCS mapped.
I was thinking of:
hv_evmcs_ptr == -1 meaning no evmcs
hv_evmcs == NULL meaning "evmcs not yet mapped" (I think)
hv_evmcs != NULL meaning "evmcs mapped".
As usual with my suggestions, I'm not sure if this makes sense :) but if
it does, the code should be nicer.
