ff03a073e7 KVM: MMU: Add kvm_mmu parameter to load_pdptrs function
This function need to be able to load the pdptrs from any
mmu context currently in use. So change this function to
take an kvm_mmu parameter to fit these needs.
As a side effect this patch also moves the cached pdptrs
from vcpu_arch into the kvm_mmu struct.

cda0008299 KVM: SVM: Restore correct registers after sel_cr0 intercept emulation
This patch implements restoring of the correct rip, rsp, and
rax after the svm emulation in KVM injected a selective_cr0
write intercept into the guest hypervisor. The problem was
that the vmexit is emulated in the instruction emulation
which later commits the registers right after the write-cr0
instruction. So the l1 guest will continue to run with the
l2 rip, rsp and rax resulting in unpredictable behavior.

This patch is not the final word, it is just an easy patch
to fix the issue. The real fix will be done when the
instruction emulator is made aware of nested virtualization.
Until this is done this patch fixes the issue and provides
an easy way to fix this in -stable too.

Some guest device driver may leverage the "Non-Snoop" I/O, and explicitly
WBINVD or CLFLUSH to a RAM space. Since migration may occur before WBINVD or
CLFLUSH, we need to maintain data consistency either by:
1: flushing cache (wbinvd) when the guest is scheduled out if there is no
wbinvd exit, or
2: execute wbinvd on all dirty physical CPUs when guest wbinvd exits.

ce7ddec4bb KVM: x86: Allow marking an exception as reinjected
This patch adds logic to kvm/x86 which allows to mark an
injected exception as reinjected. This allows to remove an
ugly hack from svm_complete_interrupts that prevented
exceptions from being reinjected at all in the nested case.
The hack was necessary because an reinjected exception into
the nested guest could cause a nested vmexit emulation. But
reinjected exceptions must not intercept. The downside of
the hack is that a exception that in injected could get
lost.
This patch fixes the problem and puts the code for it into
generic x86 files because. Nested-VMX will likely have the
same problem and could reuse the code.

6bc31bdc55 KVM: SVM: implement NEXTRIPsave SVM feature
On SVM we set the instruction length of skipped instructions
to hard-coded, well known values, which could be wrong when (bogus,
but valid) prefixes (REX, segment override) are used.
Newer AMD processors (Fam10h 45nm and better, aka. PhenomII or
AthlonII) have an explicit NEXTRIP field in the VMCB containing the
desired information.
Since it is cheap to do so, we use this field to override the guessed
value on newer processors.
A fix for older CPUs would be rather expensive, as it would require
to fetch and partially decode the instruction. As the problem is not
a security issue and needs special, handcrafted code to trigger
(no compiler will ever generate such code), I omit a fix for older
CPUs.
If someone is interested, I have both a patch for these CPUs as well as
demo code triggering this issue: It segfaults under KVM, but runs
perfectly on native Linux.

cf8f70bfe3 KVM: x86 emulator: fix in/out emulation.
in/out emulation is broken now. The breakage is different depending
on where IO device resides. If it is in userspace emulator reports
emulation failure since it incorrectly interprets kvm_emulate_pio()
return value. If IO device is in the kernel emulation of 'in' will do
nothing since kvm_emulate_pio() stores result directly into vcpu
registers, so emulator will overwrite result of emulation during
commit of shadowed register.

5bfd8b5455 KVM: Move kvm_exit tracepoint rip reading inside tracepoint
Reading rip is expensive on vmx, so move it inside the tracepoint so we only
incur the cost if tracing is enabled.
