  Merge tag 'kvmarm-fixes-7.3-2' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into HEAD (2026-10-01 13:13:57 -0400)

As mentioned in the previous PR, these are the patches that didn't make
it in time for rc5.  The most intrusive change is reverting a commit
from 7.3-rc1 that made struct kvm a bit too large, and fixing the same
issue otherwise.

There are again a lot of selftests lines; the sheer number of commits is
not small but I don't expect much more for 7.3 due to people travelling
to Plumbers next week.

----------------------------------------------------------------
ARM:

- Take a reference on the last IRQ loaded into an LR to prevent it
  from being freed while running the guest (Marc Zyngier)

- Ensure that the ITS MOVALL command only affects LPIs that were
  previously affined to the source redistributor (Marc Zyngier)

- Fix + test for honoring the host's trap configuration when running
  non-protected VMs while KVM is in protected mode (Fuad Tabba)

- Use the host stage-1 mapping granularity for VM_PFNMAP mappings at
  stage-2 (Mostafa Saleh)

x86:

Various bugfixes where the guest could do stupid things on purpose to
cause problems in the host:

- Failed VMRUNs can cause pending TLB flushes to be dropped, and in
  general some actions done through VMCB control fields have to be redone
  if VMRUN fails

- Toggling MSR interceptions or eVMCS execution controls can cause the
  host to use a stale MSR permission bitmap

- Bad page tables can cause a WARN.

Also fix issues in last week's pull request (my fault, for changing
email workflow and thus missing feedback sent to kvm@ but not LKML).

Generic:

- Take kvm_lock when creating vCPUs. For almost two decades everybody
  thought it was not done for some unspecified performance reasons, but
  in reality it was only done because kvm_lock was originally a spinlock.
  This is a better fix than 97d65b544f48 ("KVM: Check for duplicate vcpu_id
  as early as possible", from the 7.3 merge window), and does not waste
  2K per VM, hence its inclusion here.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Fuad Tabba (4):
      KVM: arm64: Apply the fine-grained UNDEFs without FEAT_FGT
      KVM: arm64: Clear HCR_EL2.RW for 32-bit non-protected vCPUs
      KVM: arm64: Use the host's HCR_EL2 for non-protected VMs in pKVM
      KVM: arm64: selftests: Check a feature hidden in an ID register is UNDEF

Marc Zyngier (3):
      KVM: arm64: vgic: Allow last_lr_irq to be NULL when LRs are not overflowing
      KVM: arm64: vgic: Take a refcount on IRQs referenced by last_lr_irq
      KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Fix MOVALL handling of source redistributor

Mostafa Saleh (1):
      KVM: arm64: Use stage-1 leaf size for VM_PFNMAP

Paolo Bonzini (1):
      Merge tag 'kvmarm-fixes-7.3-2' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into HEAD

Sean Christopherson (21):
      KVM: Reject attempts to lock all vCPUs if vCPU creation is in-progress
      KVM: arm64: vgic: Rely on vCPU creation check in "trylock all vCPUs"
      KVM: RISC-V: Use kvm_is_vcpu_creation_in_progress() instead of open-coded equivalent
      KVM: Protect all of kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() with kvm->lock
      KVM: Move check for existing vCPU ID to the top of vCPU creation
      Revert "KVM: Check for duplicate vcpu_id as early as possible"
      KVM: WARN if vCPU creation is in-progress when locking all vCPUs
      KVM: x86/mmu: Bail from shadow walks if the root is invalid or a dummy
      KVM: SVM: Preserve TLB control (i.e. pending TLB flush) on failed VMRUN
      KVM: SVM: Update control fields on #VMEXIT if and only if VMRUN succeeded
      KVM: SVM: Don't mark ASID fields as dirty when setting control.tlb_ctl
      KVM: SVM: Sync guest's PERF_CNTR_GLOBAL_CTL from h/w only on successful VMRUN
      KVM: SVM: Use the active VMCB's MSR bitmap when checking if MSR is intercepted
      KVM: nVMX: Force MSR bitmap refresh if runtime eVMCS controls are modified
      KVM: selftests: Add x2APIC MSR test for inhibiting APICv while nested
      KVM: selftests: Run the nested x2APIC with and without APICv being inhibited in L2
      KVM: selftests: Verify that L0's TPR doesn't get clobbered
      KVM: selftests: Extend nested x2APIC test to validate disabling x2APIC virt
      KVM: selftests: Extend nested x2APIC test to validate using eVMCS for vmcs12
      KVM: SEV: Nullify "have run CPUs" mask pointer when freeing it
      KVM: SEV: Do cache maintenance on the source VM *before* clearing SEV state
