Hey Rusty, These are the patches that rework a few bits to make hot-unplug while ports are open not crash apps (or kernels). The problem is when hot-unplug is performed when a port is open, the cdev struct is kept around by the file pointers and when the app later does a 'close', things go boom-boom. This patch series makes sure port as well as device hot-unplug is now safe to perform

This patch series is based on the VM introspection patches (https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20200721210922.7646-1-alazar at bitdefender.com/), extending the introspection API with EPT Views and Virtualization Exceptions (#VE) support. The purpose of this series is to get an initial feedback and to see if we are on the right track, especially because the changes made to add the EPT views are not small
