Enlightened VMCS is just a structure in memory, the main benefit
besides avoiding somewhat slower VMREAD/VMWRITE is using clean field
mask: we tell the underlying hypervisor which fields were modified
since VMEXIT so there's no need to inspect them all.
Tight CPUID loop test shows significant speedup:
Before: 18890 cycles
After: 8304 cycles
Static key is being used to avoid performance penalty for non-Hyper-V
deployments.
