Reload the current thread's FPU state, which contains the guest's FPU
state, to the CPU registers if necessary during vcpu_enter_guest().
TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD can be set any time control is transferred out of KVM,
e.g. if I/O is triggered during a KVM call to get_user_pages() or if a
softirq occurs while KVM is scheduled in.
Moving the handling of TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD from vcpu_enter_guest() to
kvm_arch_vcpu_load(), effectively kvm_sched_in(), papered over a bug
where kvm_put_guest_fpu() failed to account for TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD. The
easiest way to the kvm_put_guest_fpu() bug was to run with involuntary
preemption enable, thus handling TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD during kvm_sched_in()
made the bug go away. But, removing the handling in vcpu_enter_guest()
exposed KVM to the rare case of a softirq triggering kernel_fpu_begin()
between vcpu_load() and vcpu_enter_guest().
Now that kvm_{load,put}_guest_fpu() correctly handle TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD,
revert the commit to both restore the vcpu_enter_guest() behavior and
eliminate the superfluous switch_fpu_return() in kvm_arch_vcpu_load().
Note, leaving the handling in kvm_arch_vcpu_load() isn't wrong per se,
but it is unnecessary, and most critically, makes it extremely difficult
to find bugs such as the kvm_put_guest_fpu() issue due to shrinking the
window where a softirq can corrupt state.
A sample trace triggered by warning if TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is set while
vcpu state is loaded:

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.
