If it's an array of size one, you can refer to the only element with 
vcpu->vmx->member.  If it's later changed to an array of size zero, you 
can keep the references the same, and change the allocations to 
kmalloc(sizeof(struct kvm_vcpu) +sizeof(struct kvm_vmx_data)) so that 
you don't allocate any unnecessary memory.
