Finally, I got a piece of information from Microsoft on what's going on
and it solves a lot of our problems. They did introduce a new PV feature
bit indicating support for these new fields in eVMCSv1 and Win11 checks
for its presence. This means that we do not need to play the 'eVMCS
revisions' trick as CPUID information from VMM is enough.
