Subject: KVM: x86: fix fixing of hypercalls

From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>


[ Upstream commit ce2e852ecc9a42e4b8dabb46025cfef63209234a ]

emulator_fix_hypercall() replaces hypercall with vmcall instruction,
but it does not handle GP exception properly when writes the new instruction.
It can return X86EMUL_PROPAGATE_FAULT without setting exception information.
This leads to incorrect emulation and triggers
WARN_ON(ctxt->exception.vector > 0x1f) in x86_emulate_insn()
as discovered by syzkaller fuzzer:

WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 18646 at arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c:5558

Set exception information when write in emulator_fix_hypercall() fails.
