Here as well, whatever is constant must not be stored in struct kvm_arch_vcpu.

Thanks, we use this in vcpu_arch because the vcpu_arch is used as argument in switch.S' methods, we can quickly access the guest_eentry and handle_exit by using the KVM_ARCH_GEENTRY, KVM_ARCH_HANDLE_EXIT offsets. If we change to global variable , we should relocate it in switch.S and may lead to lower accessing speed.
