[PATCH 5.15.y v4 00/11] KVM: fixes for CVE-2026-46113 and related issues

[Kenta Akagi <k@mgml.me>]

This is a backport of the CVE-2026-46113 and CVE-2026-53359 fixes to 5.15.y.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260626174620.1819772-1-pbonzini@redhat.com/
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20260913155523.7423-1-k@mgml.me/

Changes from v3:
- Added patches 3-6 to backport the change from gpte_is_8_bytes to has_4_byte_gpte.
- Adjusted patches 7-8 (patches 3/7 and 4/7 in v3) accordingly.

A regression has been reported in the backport of commit 0cb2af2ea66a
("KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due to unexpected GFN")
[1], but the corresponding fix has already been merged into 5.15.218 [2].
