Summary

The MSR and I/O bitmaps just need to be page-aligned. They do
not have other constraints, so malloc_aligned() is sufficient.

I don't quite follow. svm_init() stores the PAs of these bitmaps in the VMCB, and they're both larger than PAGE_SIZE, so don't they need to be physically contiguous?

jhb added inline comments.

Oof, yes, that's a fail on my part.
