KVM: VMX: Drop guest CPUID check for VMXE in vmx_set_cr4()
Drop vmx_set_cr4()'s somewhat hidden guest_cpuid_has() check on VMXE now that common x86 handles the check by incorporating VMXE into the CR4 reserved bits, i.e. in cr4_guest_rsvd_bits. This fixes a bug where KVM incorrectly rejects KVM_SET_SREGS with CR4.VMXE=1 if it's executed before KVM_SET_CPUID{,2}. Fixes: 5e1746d6205d ("KVM: nVMX: Allow setting the VMXE bit in CR4") Reported-by: Stas Sergeev <stsp@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@intel.com> Message-Id: <20201007014417.29276-2-sean.j.christopherson@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
