[PATCH 2/2] KVM: X86: Fix null pointer reference for KVM_GET_MSRS

From: Peter Xu
Date: Sun Oct 25 2020 - 14:53:50 EST


kvm_msr_ignored_check() could trigger a null pointer reference if ignore_msrs=Y
and report_ignore_msrs=Y when try to fetch an invalid feature msr using the
global KVM_GET_MSRS. Degrade the error report to not rely on vcpu since that
information (index, rip) is not as important as msr index/data after all.
