KVM: VMX: Fix host MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE corruption
enter_lmode() and exit_lmode() modify the guest's EFER.LMA before calling vmx_set_efer(). However, the latter function depends on the value of EFER.LMA to determine whether MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE needs reloading, via vmx_load_host_state(). With EFER.LMA changing under its feet, it took the wrong choice and corrupted userspace's %gs. This causes 32-on-64 host userspace to fault. Fix not touching EFER.LMA; instead ask vmx_set_efer() to change it. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
