Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Emulate VMXON region correctly

Reference: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54521

The vmxon region is unused by nvmx, but adding these checks
are probably harmless and may detect buggy L1 hypervisors in 
the future!

Bandan Das (3):
  KVM: nVMX: rearrange get_vmx_mem_address
  KVM: nVMX: additional checks on vmxon region
  KVM: nVMX: fail on invalid vmclear/vmptrld pointer
