Subject: CVE-2021-47390: KVM: x86: Fix stack-out-of-bounds memory access from ioapic_write_indirect()

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

KVM: x86: Fix stack-out-of-bounds memory access from ioapic_write_indirect()

KASAN reports the following issue:

 BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in kvm_make_vcpus_request_mask+0x174/0x440 [kvm]

The problem appears to be that 'vcpu_bitmap' is allocated as a single long
on stack and it should really be KVM_MAX_VCPUS long. We also seem to clear
the lower 16 bits of it with bitmap_zero() for no particular reason (my
guess would be that 'bitmap' and 'vcpu_bitmap' variables in
kvm_bitmap_or_dest_vcpus() caused the confusion: while the later is indeed
16-bit long, the later should accommodate all possible vCPUs).

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47390 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
