Following what arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/entry.S does would make the patch a bit smaller.

Nothing wrong with using NULL.

Given the code is going to overwrite lr with the value returned by trampoline_probe_handler might eliminate the store to #S_LR above.

Looking at the my patch again I am wondering if the patch could skip storing daif and the mode field.  The nzcv bit are the only thing restored.

Ah, yes, that would save a store/load pair.
