Sean Christopherson 2368048bf5 KVM: x86: Signal #GP, not -EPERM, on bad WRMSR(MCi_CTL/STATUS)
Return '1', not '-1', when handling an illegal WRMSR to a MCi_CTL or
MCi_STATUS MSR.  The behavior of "all zeros' or "all ones" for CTL MSRs
is architectural, as is the "only zeros" behavior for STATUS MSRs.  I.e.
the intent is to inject a #GP, not exit to userspace due to an unhandled
emulation case.  Returning '-1' gets interpreted as -EPERM up the stack
and effecitvely kills the guest.

Fixes: 890ca9aefa ("KVM: Add MCE support")
Fixes: 9ffd986c6e ("KVM: X86: #GP when guest attempts to write MCi_STATUS register w/o 0")

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.
