[PATCH 1/3] KVM: nVMX: unwind PDPTR load if processor triggers a nested VMFail

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

Upon a VM-entry failure that is caught by the processor rather than
KVM, nested_vmx_restore_host_state() restores L1's CR3 but not the
PDPTRs.  If shadow paging is used (enable_ept is false), the L2
PDPTRs loaded during the aborted entry attempt remain in
vcpu->arch.mmu->pdptrs[].

Note that the fact that the PDPTRs are stored in the MMU does not
save the day, because KVM only uses root_mmu if enable_ept is false.

To fix this, use nested_vmx_load_cr3() instead of open coding
just the load of vcpu->arch.cr3, in the same guise as
load_vmcs12_host_state().  nested_vmx_load_cr3() will mark the
register as dirty rather than available, but this is only a
very minor pessimization.

If EPT *is* in use, do not load the PDPTRs and rely solely on
ept_save_pdptrs() to reload them from VMCS01.  When vmx_load_mmu_pgd()
runs on the next entry, the PDPTRs are available---meaning they are
not incorrectly reloaded from memory.

kvm_mmu_unload() is preserved to keep the paths from the old
kvm_mmu_reset_context(), but is actually unnecessary.  It can
be removed as a separate patch.
