[PATCH 4.9 083/107] x86/KVM/VMX: Dont set l1tf_flush_l1d to true from vmx_l1d_flush()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Nicolai Stange <nstange@xxxxxxx>

commit 379fd0c7e6a391e5565336a646f19f218fb98c6c upstream

vmx_l1d_flush() gets invoked only if l1tf_flush_l1d is true. There's no
point in setting l1tf_flush_l1d to true from there again.
