[PATCH 2/2] KVM: nVMX: Defer SVI update to vmcs01 on EOI when L2 is active w/o VID

From: Chao Gao <chao.gao@intel.com>

If KVM emulates an EOI for L1's virtual APIC while L2 is active, defer
updating GUEST_INTERUPT_STATUS.SVI, i.e. the VMCS's cache of the highest
in-service IRQ, until L1 is active, as vmcs01, not vmcs02, needs to track
vISR. The missed SVI update for vmcs01 can result in L1 interrupts being
incorrectly blocked, e.g. if there is a pending interrupt with lower
priority than the interrupt that was EOI'd.

This bug only affects use cases where L1's vAPIC is effectively passed
through to L2, e.g. in a pKVM scenario where L2 is L1's depriveleged host,
as KVM will only emulate an EOI for L1's vAPIC if Virtual Interrupt
Delivery (VID) is disabled in vmc12, and L1 isn't intercepting L2 accesses
to its (virtual) APIC page (or if x2APIC is enabled, the EOI MSR).

WARN() if KVM updates L1's ISR while L2 is active with VID enabled, as an
EOI from L2 is supposed to affect L2's vAPIC, but still defer the update,
to try to keep L1 alive. Specifically, KVM forwards all APICv-related
VM-Exits to L1 via nested_vmx_l1_wants_exit():

case EXIT_REASON_APIC_ACCESS:
case EXIT_REASON_APIC_WRITE:
case EXIT_REASON_EOI_INDUCED:
/*
* The controls for "virtualize APIC accesses," "APIC-
* register virtualization," and "virtual-interrupt
* delivery" only come from vmcs12.
*/
return true;
