Sean Christopherson a709c46fdc KVM: VMX: Do not allow reexecute_instruction() when skipping MMIO instr
commit c4409905cd6eb42cfd06126e9226b0150e05a715 upstream.

Re-execution after an emulation decode failure is only intended to
handle a case where two or vCPUs race to write a shadowed page, i.e.
we should never re-execute an instruction as part of MMIO emulation.
As handle_ept_misconfig() is only used for MMIO emulation, it should
pass EMULTYPE_NO_REEXECUTE when using the emulator to skip an instr
in the fast-MMIO case where VM_EXIT_INSTRUCTION_LEN is invalid.

And because the cr2 value passed to x86_emulate_instruction() is only
destined for use when retrying or reexecuting, we can simply call
emulate_instruction().

Fixes: d391f1207067 ("x86/kvm/vmx: do not use vm-exit instruction length
                      for fast MMIO when running nested")

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
