Ah, I will fix it.

Good point, for the completeness we should add the preferred GPA MSR and
return appropriate response code to cover the cases where non Linux
guest may use this vmgexit to determine the GHCB GPA.

Let me see if I can improve it to avoid the naming confusion. Most of
the naming recommending came during the part1 review, I will check with
Boris and other to see if they are okay with new names.

What is the preferred method to log it so that someone debugging know
what went wrong.
