KVM: VMX: flush TLB with INVEPT on cpu migration
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It is possible that stale EPTP-tagged mappings are used, if a
vcpu migrates to a different pcpu.

Set KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH in vmx_vcpu_load, when switching pcpus, which
will invalidate both VPID and EPT mappings on the next vm-entry.
