If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Oliver Upton [ Upstream commit 0aa1b76fe1429629215a7c79820e4b96233ac4a3 ] Another day, another syzkaller bug. KVM erroneously allows userspace to pend vCPU events for a vCPU that hasn't been initialized yet, leading to KVM interpreting a bunch of uninitialized garbage for routing / injecting the exception. In one case the injection code and the hyp disagree on whether the vCPU has a 32bit EL1 and put the vCPU into an illegal mode for AArch64, tripping the BUG() in exception_target_el() during the next injection: kernel BUG at arch/arm64/kvm/inject_fault.c:40!

Even if it did the exception would've been thrown away by the eventual reset of the vCPU's state.
