My review feedback from the previous patch series still applies, and I don't
know why it was not addressed/replied to:

I still think that it is worth it to have a check that CET is not enabled in
enter_smm_save_state_32 which is called for pure 32 bit guests (guests that don't
have X86_FEATURE_LM enabled)
