Yosry Ahmed 08c8d23e2e KVM: SVM: Mark VMCB_LBR dirty when MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR is updated
commit dc55b3c3f6 upstream.

The APM lists the DbgCtlMsr field as being tracked by the VMCB_LBR clean
bit.  Always clear the bit when MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR is updated.

The history is complicated, it was correctly cleared for L1 before
commit 1d5a1b5860 ("KVM: x86: nSVM: correctly virtualize LBR msrs when
L2 is running").  At that point svm_set_msr() started to rely on
svm_update_lbrv() to clear the bit, but when nested virtualization
is enabled the latter does not always clear it even if MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR
changed. Go back to clearing it directly in svm_set_msr().

Fixes: 1d5a1b5860 ("KVM: x86: nSVM: correctly virtualize LBR msrs when L2 is running")

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.
