[PATCH v4 8/9] x86/sev: Handle CLFLUSH MMIO events

From: Vasant Karasulli
Date: Mon Mar 11 2024 - 12:21:06 EST


From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@xxxxxxx>

Handle CLFLUSH instruction to MMIO memory in the #VC handler. The
instruction is ignored by the handler, as the Hypervisor is
responsible for cache management of emulated MMIO memory.
