[PATCH v3 02/13] X86/nVMX: handle_vmptrld: Copy the VMCS12 directly from guest memory

From: KarimAllah Ahmed
Date: Sat Oct 20 2018 - 18:22:56 EST


Copy the VMCS12 directly from guest memory instead of the map->copy->unmap
sequence. This also avoids using kvm_vcpu_gpa_to_page() and kmap() which
assumes that there is a "struct page" for guest memory.
