Sean Christopherson 0664dc74e9 KVM: Verify there's at least one online vCPU when iterating over all vCPUs
Explicitly check that there is at least online vCPU before iterating over
all vCPUs.  Because the max index is an unsigned long, passing "0 - 1" in
the online_vcpus==0 case results in xa_for_each_range() using an unlimited
max, i.e. allows it to access vCPU0 when it shouldn't.  This will allow
KVM to safely _erase_ from vcpu_array if the last stages of vCPU creation
fail, i.e. without generating a use-after-free if a different task happens
to be concurrently iterating over all vCPUs.

Note, because xa_for_each_range() is a macro, kvm_for_each_vcpu() subtly
reloads online_vcpus after each iteration, i.e. adding an extra load
doesn't meaningfully impact the total cost of iterating over all vCPUs.
And because online_vcpus is never decremented, there is no risk of a
reload triggering a walk of the entire xarray.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
