Ah I see, I'll update.

How about move it here - then it does not stick out like
before.
guest_trap:
load_vcpu @ Load VCPU pointer to r0
str r1, [vcpu, #VCPU_HSR]
@ Check if we need the fault information
lsr r1, r1, #HSR_EC_SHIFT
#ifdef CONFIG_VFPv3
/* Guest accessed VFP/SIMD registers, save host, restore Guest */
cmp r1, #HSR_EC_CP_0_13
beq switch_to_guest_vfp
#endif
Regarding "host_switch_to_hyp:" it has no reference but appears
like a clean separator, that's on purpose?
