I've been discussing with myself if it would make more sense to clear
the dirty flag in the C-code...

mmm, don't you need to only set the fpexc32 when you're actually going
to trap the guest accesses?
also, you can consider only setting this in vcpu_load (jumping quickly
to EL2 to do so) if we're running a 32-bit guest. Probably worth
measuring the difference between the extra EL2 jump on vcpu_load
compared to hitting this register on every entry/exit.
Code-wise, it will be nicer to do it on vcpu_load.

hmm, just noticing this. Are you not writing a 32-bit value to a
potentially 8-bit field (ignoring padding in the struct), as the dirty
flag is declared a bool.
Are you also doing this on the 32-bit side?
