KVM: SVM: Don't set current_vmcb->cpu when switching vmcb
Do not update the new vmcb's last-run cpu when switching to a different vmcb. If the vCPU is migrated between its last run and a vmcb switch, e.g. for nested VM-Exit, then setting the cpu without marking the vmcb dirty will lead to KVM running the vCPU on a different physical cpu with stale clean bit settings. vcpu->cpu current_vmcb->cpu hardware pre_svm_run() cpu0 cpu0 cpu0,clean kvm_arch_vcpu_load() cpu1 cpu0 cpu0,clean svm_switch_vmcb() cpu1 cpu1 cpu0,clean pre_svm_run() cpu1 cpu1 kaboom Simply delete the offending code; unlike VMX, which needs to update the cpu at switch time due to the need to do VMPTRLD, SVM only cares about which cpu last ran the vCPU.
