Honestly, we introduce the flavor stuff to make it easy to match
things on a particular VM type in a readable way. So why isn't this
reading:

        if (vcpu->kvm->arch.vm_flavor != VM_PROTECTED_PKVM)
                return;

I know this is a sketch, but just in case: that's inverted. The sync
only applies to non-protected pKVM VMs (EL2 ignores it for protected
ones), so it would be != VM_PKVM.

See what I meant about this stuff being completely intractable? I
still have no idea what it means! ;-)
