[PATCH 2/3] KVM: nVMX: fix wrong condition for SPEC_CTRL and PRED_CMD MSRs

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Wed Feb 21 2018 - 16:42:47 EST


We need to change the default all-1s bitmap if the MSRs are _not_
intercepted. However, the code was disabling the intercept when it was
_enabled_ in the VMCS01. This is not causing bigger trouble,
because vmx_vcpu_run checks the VMCS02's MSR bitmap and would do the
right thing even if fed garbage... but it's obviously a bug and it can
cause extra MSR reads and writes when running nested guests.
