Flush the TLB when activating AVIC as the CPU can insert into the TLB while AVIC is "locally" disabled. KVM doesn't treat "APIC hardware disabled" as VM-wide AVIC inhibition, and so when a vCPU has its APIC hardware disabled, AVIC is not guaranteed to be inhibited. As a result, KVM may create a valid NPT mapping for the APIC base, which the CPU can cache as a non-AVIC translation. Note, Intel handles this in vmx_set_virtual_apic_mode().

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.
