[PATCH v2] KVM: X86: Grab KVM's srcu lock when accessing hv assist page

From: wanpeng li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx>

For the duration of mapping eVMCS, it derefences ->memslots without holding
->srcu or ->slots_lock when accessing hv assist page. This patch fixes it by
moving nested_sync_vmcs12_to_shadow to prepare_guest_switch, where the SRCU
is already taken.

It can be reproduced by running kvm's evmcs_test selftest.

=============================
warning: suspicious rcu usage
5.6.0-rc1+ #53 tainted: g w ioe
-----------------------------
./include/linux/kvm_host.h:623 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
