[PATCH 1/8] KVM: x86: avoid loading a vCPU after .vm_destroy was called

From: Maxim Levitsky
Date: Tue Mar 22 2022 - 13:25:13 EST


This can cause various unexpected issues, since VM is partially
destroyed at that point.

For example when AVIC is enabled, this causes avic_vcpu_load to
access physical id page entry which is already freed by .vm_destroy.

Fixes: 8221c1370056 ("svm: Manage vcpu load/unload when enable AVIC")
