[ Upstream commit 93255bf92939d948bc86d81c6bb70bb0fecc5db1 ]
Mark all MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL and MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL bits
as reserved if there is no guest vPMU. The nVMX VM-Entry consistency
checks do not check for a valid vPMU prior to consuming the masks via
kvm_valid_perf_global_ctrl(), i.e. may incorrectly allow a non-zero mask
to be loaded via VM-Enter or VM-Exit (well, attempted to be loaded, the
actual MSR load will be rejected by intel_is_valid_msr()).

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.
