Whiteboard
[1] Marc: HSTR is deprecated ... Instead, we should only use HCR which should contain all the necessary bits. HSTR is viewed internally as "the workaround when everything else has failed...".
HSTR is still needed in some places.
[2] between the host and guest and indirectly guest to guest
[3] such as an ECC error while you're in HYP mode. Now panics which matches the host kernel
(?)
