[PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 51/86] KVM: Disable SMAP for guests in EPT realmode and EPT unpaging mode

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.13.11-ckt31 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Feng Wu <feng.wu@xxxxxxxxx>

commit e1e746b3c55d1d1e0841a2e600a154d8f6747232 upstream.

SMAP is disabled if CPU is in non-paging mode in hardware.
However KVM always uses paging mode to emulate guest non-paging
mode with TDP. To emulate this behavior, SMAP needs to be
manually disabled when guest switches to non-paging mode.
