On SVM, reading from "uninitialized" hardware is a non-issue as VMCBs are zero allocated (thus not truly uninitialized) and hardware does not allow for arbitrary field encoding schemes. On VMX, backing memory for VMCSes is also zero allocated, but true initialization of the VMCS _technically_ requires VMWRITEs, as the VMX architectural specification technically allows CPU implementations to encode fields with arbitrary schemes. E.g. a CPU could theoretically store the inverted value of every field, which would result in VMREAD to a zero-allocated field returns all ones. In practice, only the AR_BYTES fields are known to be manipulated by hardware during VMREAD/VMREAD; no known hardware or VMM (for nested VMX) does fancy encoding of cacheable field values (CR0, CR3, CR4, etc...). In other words, this is technically a bug fix, but practically speakings it's a glorified nop. Failure to mark registers as available has been a lurking bug for quite some time. The original register caching supported only GPRs (+RIP, which is kinda sorta a GPR), with the masks initialized at ->vcpu_reset(). That worked because the two cacheable registers, RIP and RSP, are generally speaking not read as side effects in other flows. Arguably, commit aff48baa34c0 ("KVM: Fetch guest cr3 from hardware on demand") was the first instance of failure to mark regs available. While _just_ marking CR3 available during vCPU creation wouldn't have fixed the VMREAD from an uninitialized VMCS bug because ept_update_paging_mode_cr0() unconditionally read vmcs.GUEST_CR3, marking CR3 _and_ intentionally not reading GUEST_CR3 when it's available would have avoided VMREAD to a technically-uninitialized VMCS.
