Sean Christopherson 654430efde KVM: x86/mmu: Calculate and check "full" mmu_role for nested MMU
Calculate and check the full mmu_role when initializing the MMU context
for the nested MMU, where "full" means the bits and pieces of the role
that aren't handled by kvm_calc_mmu_role_common().  While the nested MMU
isn't used for shadow paging, things like the number of levels in the
guest's page tables are surprisingly important when walking the guest
page tables.  Failure to reinitialize the nested MMU context if L2's
paging mode changes can result in unexpected and/or missed page faults,
and likely other explosions.

E.g. if an L1 vCPU is running both a 32-bit PAE L2 and a 64-bit L2, the
"common" role calculation will yield the same role for both L2s.  If the
64-bit L2 is run after the 32-bit PAE L2, L0 will fail to reinitialize
the nested MMU context, ultimately resulting in a bad walk of L2's page
tables as the MMU will still have a guest root_level of PT32E_ROOT_LEVEL.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
