Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Signal #GP, not -EPERM, on bad
WRMSR(MCi_CTL/STATUS)
Return '1', not '-1', when handling an illegal WRMSR to a MCi_CTL or
MCi_STATUS MSR. The behavior of "all zeros' or "all ones" for CTL MSRs
is architectural, as is the "only zeros" behavior for STATUS MSRs. I.e.
the intent is to inject a #GP, not exit to userspace due to an unhandled
emulation case. Returning '-1' gets interpreted as -EPERM up the stack
and effecitvely kills the guest.
Fixes: 890ca9aefa78 ("KVM: Add MCE support")
Fixes: 9ffd986c6e4e ("KVM: X86: #GP when guest attempts to write MCi_STATUS register w/o 0")
