Vitaly Kuznetsov d5cd6f3401 KVM: nSVM: Avoid freeing uninitialized pointers in svm_set_nested_state()
The save and ctl pointers are passed uninitialized to kfree() when
svm_set_nested_state() follows the 'goto out_set_gif' path. While the
issue could've been fixed by initializing these on-stack varialbles to
NULL, it seems preferable to eliminate 'out_set_gif' label completely as
it is not actually a failure path and duplicating a single svm_set_gif()
call doesn't look too bad.

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.
