The MSRs *do* conflict. Kind of...
Xen uses MSR 0x40000000 (not to be conflated with CPUID leaf
0x40000000) for the "write hypercall page" request.
That conflicts with Hyper-V's HV_X64_MSR_GUEST_OS_ID.
So when the Hyper-V extensions are enabled, Xen moves its own MSR to
0x40000200 to avoid the conflict.
The problem is that KVM services the Hyper-V MSRs unconditionally in
the switch statement in kvm_set_msr_common(). So if the Xen MSR is set
to 0x40000000 and Hyper-V is *not* enabled, the Hyper-V support still
stops the Xen MSR from working.
Joao's patch fixes that.
A nicer alternative might be to disable the Hyper-V MSRs when they
shouldn't be there. Something like...

... except that's a bit icky because that trick of falling through to
the default case only works for *one* case statement. And more to the
point, the closest thing I can find to a 'kvm_hyperv_enabled()' flag is
what we do for setting the HV_X64_MSR_HYPERCALL_ENABLE flag... which is
based on whether the hv_guest_os_id is set, which in turn is done by
writing one of these MSRs :)
I suppose we could disable them just by letting Xen take precedence, if
kvm->arch.xen_hvm_config.msr == HV_X64_MSR_GUEST_OS_ID. But that's
basically what Joao's patch already does. It doesn't disable the
*other* Hyper-V MSRs except for the one Xen 'conflicts' with, but I
don't think that matters.
The patch stands alone to correct the *existing* functionality of
KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG, regardless of the additional functionality being
proposed in the rest of the series that followed it.
