One more thing.  If you're going to be patching generic code, please
start using feature checks that can get optimized away at runtime.
hv_is_isolation_supported() doesn't look like the world's cheapest
check.  It can't be inlined and costs at least a function call.

Yes, you are right. How about adding a static branch key for the check of isolation VM? This may reduce the check cost.
