Grouped case statements are usually stacked vertically, e.g.:

Ok, thank you for your suggestion.

Blech. I'm guessing this code was copy-pasted from handle_xsaves() and
handle_xrstors(). The blurb of "this should never happen" isn't very
helpful, e.g. the WARN itself makes it pretty obvious that we don't expect
to reach this point. WARN_ONCE would also be preferable, no need to spam
the log in the event things go completely haywire.

Rather than propagate ugly code, what about defining a common helper, e.g.

static int handle_unexpected_vmexit(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
kvm_skip_emulated_instruction(vcpu);
WARN_ONCE(1, "Unexpected VM-Exit = 0x%x", vmcs_read32(VM_EXIT_REASON));
return 1;
}

...
{
[EXIT_REASON_XSAVES] = handle_unexpected_vmexit,
[EXIT_REASON_XRSTORS] = handle_unexpected_vmexit,

[EXIT_REASON_UMWAIT] = handle_unexpected_vmexit,
[EXIT_REASON_TPAUSE] = handle_unexpected_vmexit,

}

Thank you Sean, I will do this in next version of patch.
