Vitaly Kuznetsov 278499686b KVM: nVMX: Introduce 'EVMPTR_MAP_PENDING' post-migration state
Unlike regular set_current_vmptr(), nested_vmx_handle_enlightened_vmptrld()
can not be called directly from vmx_set_nested_state() as KVM may not have
all the information yet (e.g. HV_X64_MSR_VP_ASSIST_PAGE MSR may not be
restored yet). Enlightened VMCS is mapped later while getting nested state
pages. In the meantime, vmx->nested.hv_evmcs_vmptr remains 'EVMPTR_INVALID'
and it's indistinguishable from 'evmcs is not in use' case. This leads to
certain issues, in particular, if KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE is called right
after KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE, KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS flag in the resulting
state will be unset (and such state will later fail to load).

Introduce 'EVMPTR_MAP_PENDING' state to detect not-yet-mapped eVMCS after
restore. With this, the 'is_guest_mode(vcpu)' hack in vmx_has_valid_vmcs12()
is no longer needed.

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.
