The henvcfg setting isn't covered here at all, unless I'm failing to make the
respective association. Nor is the setting of SMSTATEEN0_HSENVCFG in hstateen0.

Overall it feels like the description here is too terse anyway, as the bits
set (or not) are a pretty crucial thing for running guests. Then again maybe
this is just me, for not being a RISC-V person ...

Wouldn't you better start from setting all of the non-reserved bits, to then
clear the few that you mean to not delegate? Then again I'm not quite sure
whether the set of CAUSE_* in the header file is actually complete: MCAUSE
also can hold the values 16, 18, and 19. (Otoh you have CAUSE_MACHINE_ECALL,
which I don't think can ever be observed outside of M-mode.)

Also, while it may seem to not matter much, sorting the above by their numeric
values would ease comparison against the full set.

Why would these (or in fact any) bits need setting here? Isn't hstatus written
upon exit from guest context?

Again I think having MIP_VSTIP in the middle (to establish numeric sorting)
would be slightly better.

Also there's a stray blank after the first |.

Why are this and ...

... this using |= but the earlier ones simply = ? Unless there is a specific
reason, consistency is likely preferable.

What is SVSLCT? Bit 60 is named CSRIND in the spec I'm looking at, and the
commentary above looks to confirm this.

Also, wouldn't you better keep internal state in line with what hardware
actually supports? CSRIND may be read-only-zero in the real register, in
which case having the bit set in the "cached" copy can be misleading.
(This may similarly apply to at least hedeleg and hideleg, btw.)

As to consistency: Further up you use local helper variables (for imo no real
reason), when here you don't. Instead this line ends up being too long.
