[PATCH] KVM: x86: fix bogus warning about reserved bits

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Tue Sep 22 2015 - 04:25:46 EST


29ecd6601904 ("KVM: x86: avoid uninitialized variable warning",
2015-09-06) introduced a not-so-subtle problem, which probably
escaped review because it was not part of the patch context.

Before the patch, leaf was always equal to iterator.level. After,
it is equal to iterator.level - 1 in the call to is_shadow_zero_bits_set,
and when is_shadow_zero_bits_set does another "-1" the check on
reserved bits becomes incorrect. Using "iterator.level" in the call
fixes this call trace:
