Commit adc2a23734ac ("KVM: nSVM: improve SYSENTER emulation on AMD"),
made init_vmcb set vmload/vmsave intercepts unconditionally,
and relied on svm_vcpu_after_set_cpuid to clear them when possible.
However init_vmcb is also called when the vCPU is reset, and it is
not followed by another call to svm_vcpu_after_set_cpuid because
the CPUID is already set. This mistake makes the VMSAVE/VMLOAD intercept
to be set when it is not needed, and harms performance of the nested
guest.
Extract the relevant parts of svm_vcpu_after_set_cpuid so that they
can be called again on reset.

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.
