The BUILD_BUG_ON(IO_BITMAP_OFFSET - 1 == 0x67) in the VMX code is bogus in
two aspects:
1) This wants to be in generic x86 code simply to catch issues even when
VMX is disabled in Kconfig.
2) The IO_BITMAP_OFFSET is not the right thing to check because it makes
asssumptions about the layout of tss_struct. Nothing requires that the
I/O bitmap is placed right after x86_tss, which is the hardware mandated
tss structure. It pointlessly makes restrictions on the struct
tss_struct layout.
The proper thing to check is:
- Offset of x86_tss in tss_struct is 0
- Size of x86_tss == 0x68
Move it to the other build time TSS checks and make it do the right thing.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
