CET (Control-flow Enforcement Technology) is a CPU feature used to prevent
Return/Jump-Oriented Programming (ROP/JOP) attacks. CET introduces a new
exception type, Control Protection (#CP), and two sub-features to defend
against ROP/JOP style control-flow subversion attacks:

Shadow Stack (SHSTK):
  A shadow stack is a second stack used exclusively for control transfer
  operations. The shadow stack is separate from the data/normal stack and
  can be enabled individually in user and kernel mode.  When shadow stacks
  are enabled, CALL pushes the return address on both the data and shadow
  stack. RET pops the return address from both stacks and compares them.
  If the return addresses from the two stacks do not match, the processor
  signals a #CP.

Indirect Branch Tracking (IBT):
  IBT adds a new instrution, ENDBRANCH, that is used to mark valid target
  addresses of indirect branches (CALL, JMP, ENCLU[EEXIT], etc...). If an
  indirect branch is executed and the next instruction is _not_ an
  ENDBRANCH, the processor signals a #CP.

Several new CET MSRs are defined to support CET:
  MSR_IA32_{U,S}_CET: Controls the CET settings for user mode and kernel
                      mode respectively.

  MSR_IA32_PL{0,1,2,3}_SSP: Stores shadow stack pointers for CPL-0,1,2,3
                            protection respectively.

  MSR_IA32_INT_SSP_TAB: Stores base address of shadow stack pointer table.

Two XSAVES state bits are introduced for CET:
  IA32_XSS:[bit 11]: Control saving/restoring user mode CET states
  IA32_XSS:[bit 12]: Control saving/restoring kernel mode CET states.

Six VMCS fields are introduced for CET:
  {HOST,GUEST}_S_CET: Stores CET settings for kernel mode.
  {HOST,GUEST}_SSP: Stores shadow stack pointer of current task/thread.
  {HOST,GUEST}_INTR_SSP_TABLE: Stores base address of shadow stack pointer
  table.

If VM_EXIT_LOAD_HOST_CET_STATE = 1, the host CET states are restored from
the following VMCS fields at VM-Exit:
  HOST_S_CET
  HOST_SSP
  HOST_INTR_SSP_TABLE

If VM_ENTRY_LOAD_GUEST_CET_STATE = 1, the guest CET states are loaded from
the following VMCS fields at VM-Entry:
  GUEST_S_CET
  GUEST_SSP
  GUEST_INTR_SSP_TABLE
