Maxim Levitsky 7ab62e3415 x86: KVM: SVM: always update the x2avic msr interception 
commit b65235f6e1 upstream.

The following problem exists since x2avic was enabled in the KVM:

svm_set_x2apic_msr_interception is called to enable the interception of
the x2apic msrs.

In particular it is called at the moment the guest resets its apic.

Assuming that the guest's apic was in x2apic mode, the reset will bring
it back to the xapic mode.

The svm_set_x2apic_msr_interception however has an erroneous check for
'!apic_x2apic_mode()' which prevents it from doing anything in this case.

As a result of this, all x2apic msrs are left unintercepted, and that
exposes the bare metal x2apic (if enabled) to the guest.
Oops.

Remove the erroneous '!apic_x2apic_mode()' check to fix that.

This fixes CVE-2023-5090

Fixes: 4d1d7942e3 ("KVM: SVM: Introduce logic to (de)activate x2AVIC mode")

README 

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 Restructured Text 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.
