[PATCH v2] kvm: nVMX: Set nested_run_pending in vmx_set_nested_state after checks complete

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Wed May 08 2019 - 08:17:46 EST


From: Aaron Lewis <aaronlewis@xxxxxxxxxx>

nested_run_pending=1 implies we have successfully entered guest mode.
Move setting from external state in vmx_set_nested_state() until after
all other checks are complete.

Based on a patch by Aaron Lewis.
