mainlining shenanigans
81ca0e7340
Tweak the logic for grabbing vmcs.GUEST_CR3 in vmx_cache_reg() to look directly at the execution controls, as opposed to effectively inferring the controls based on vCPUs. Inferring the controls isn't wrong, but it creates a very subtle dependency between the caching logic, the state of vcpu->arch.cr0 (via is_paging()), and the behavior of vmx_set_cr0(). Using the execution controls doesn't completely eliminate the dependency in vmx_set_cr0(), e.g. neglecting to cache CR3 before enabling interception would still break the guest, but it does reduce the code dependency and mostly eliminate the logical dependency (that CR3 loads are intercepted in certain scenarios). Eliminating the subtle read of vcpu->arch.cr0 will also allow for additional cleanup in vmx_set_cr0().

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.
