Linux kernel source tree

Rename the top-level consistency check functions to (loosely) align with the SDM. Historically, KVM has used the terms "prereq" and "postreq" to differentiate between consistency checks that lead to VM-Fail and those that lead to VM-Exit. The terms are vague and potentially misleading, e.g. "postreq" might be interpreted as occurring after VM-Entry. Note, while the SDM lumps controls and host state into a single section, "Checks on VMX Controls and Host-State Area", split them into separate top-level functions as the two categories of checks result in different VM instruction errors. This split will allow for additional cleanup. Note #2, "vmentry" is intentionally dropped from the new function names to avoid confusion with nested_check_vm_entry_controls(), and to keep the length of the functions names somewhat manageable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
