When emulating L2 instructions, svm_check_intercept() checks whether a
write to CR0 should trigger a synthesized #VMEXIT with
SVM_EXIT_CR0_SEL_WRITE. For MOV-to-CR0, SVM_EXIT_CR0_SEL_WRITE is only
triggered if any bit other than CR0.MP and CR0.TS is updated. However,
according to the APM (24593—Rev. 3.42—March 2024, Table 15-7):
The LMSW instruction treats the selective CR0-write
intercept as a non-selective intercept (i.e., it intercepts
regardless of the value being written).
Skip checking the changed bits for x86_intercept_lmsw and always inject
SVM_EXIT_CR0_SEL_WRITE.

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 reStructuredText 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.
