[PATCH v4 0/4] KVM: x86: Fix and harden reg caching from !TASK context

[Sean Christopherson]

Fix a (VMX only) bug reported by Maxim where KVM caches a stale SS.AR_BYTES
when involuntary preemption schedules out a vCPU during vmx_vcpu_rest(), and
ultimately clobbers the VMCS's SS.AR_BYTES if userspace does KVM_GET_SREGS
=> KVM_SET_SREGS, i.e. if userspace writes the stale value back into KVM.

v4, as this is a spiritual successor to Maxim's earlier series.

Patch 1 fixes the underlying problem by avoiding the cache in kvm_sched_out().

Patch 2 fixes vmx_vcpu_reset() to invalidate the cache _after_ writing the
VMCS, which also fixes the VMCS clobbering bug, but isn't as robust of a fix
for KVM as a whole, e.g. any other flow that invalidates the cache too "early"
would be susceptible to the bug, and on its own doesn't allow for the
hardening in patch 3.

Patch 3 hardens KVM against using the register caches from !TASK context.
Except for PMI callbacks, which are tightly bounded, i.e. can't run while
KVM is modifying segment information, using the register caches from IRQ/NMI
is unsafe.

Patch 4 is a tangentially related cleanup.
