Subject: [PATCH] kvm: nVMX: Don't allow L2 to access the hardware CR8
Git-commit: 51aa68e7d57e3217192d88ce90fd5b8ef29ec94f
Patch-mainline: v4.14-rc1
References: bsc#1058507, CVE-2017-12154

If L1 does not specify the "use TPR shadow" VM-execution control in
vmcs12, then L0 must specify the "CR8-load exiting" and "CR8-store
exiting" VM-execution controls in vmcs02. Failure to do so will give
the L2 VM unrestricted read/write access to the hardware CR8.

This fixes CVE-2017-12154.
