--------------------------------

commit af957eeb upstream.

When loading nested state, don't use check vcpu->arch.efer to get the
L1 host's 64-bit vs. 32-bit state and don't check it for consistency
with respect to VM_EXIT_HOST_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE, as register state in vCPU
may be stale when KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE is called---and architecturally
does not exist.  When restoring L2 state in KVM, the CPU is placed in
non-root where nested VMX code has no snapshot of L1 host state: VMX
(conditionally) loads host state fields loaded on VM-exit, but they need
not correspond to the state before entry.  A simple case occurs in KVM
itself, where the host RIP field points to vmx_vmexit rather than the
instruction following vmlaunch/vmresume.

However, for the particular case of L1 being in 32- or 64-bit mode
on entry, the exit controls can be treated instead as the source of
truth regarding the state of L1 on entry, and can be used to check
that vmcs12.VM_EXIT_HOST_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE matches vmcs12.HOST_EFER if
vmcs12.VM_EXIT_LOAD_IA32_EFER is set.  The consistency check on CPU
EFER vs. vmcs12.VM_EXIT_HOST_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE, instead, happens only
on VM-Enter.  That's because, again, there's conceptually no "current"
L1 EFER to check on KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE.
