Explicitly clear the EXIT_QUALIFCATION field when injecting an EPT
misconfig into L1, as required by the VMX architecture. Per the SDM:
This field is saved for VM exits due to the following causes:
debug exceptions; page-fault exceptions; start-up IPIs (SIPIs);
system-management interrupts (SMIs) that arrive immediately after the
execution of I/O instructions; task switches; INVEPT; INVLPG; INVPCID;
INVVPID; LGDT; LIDT; LLDT; LTR; SGDT; SIDT; SLDT; STR; VMCLEAR; VMPTRLD;
VMPTRST; VMREAD; VMWRITE; VMXON; WBINVD; WBNOINVD; XRSTORS; XSAVES;
control-register accesses; MOV DR; I/O instructions; MWAIT; accesses to
the APIC-access page; EPT violations; EOI virtualization; APIC-write
emulation; page-modification log full; SPP-related events; and
instruction timeout. For all other VM exits, this field is cleared.
Generating EXIT_QUALIFICATION from vcpu->arch.exit_qualification is wrong
for all (two) paths that lead to nested_ept_inject_page_fault(). For EPT
violations (the common case), vcpu->arch.exit_qualification will have been
set by handle_ept_violation() to vmcs02.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, i.e. contains
the information of a EPT violation and thus is likely non-zero.
For an EPT misconfig, which can reach FNAME(walk_addr_generic) and thus
inject a nEPT misconfig if KVM created an MMIO SPTE that became stale,
vcpu->arch.exit_qualification will hold the information from the last EPT
violation VM-Exit, as vcpu->arch.exit_qualification is _only_ written by
handle_ept_violation().

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.
