Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nVMX: Fix windows guest BSOD due to fail Intel FlexPriority

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@...mail.com>

Intel FlexPriority maintains a "virtual TPR" register in memory(Virtual 
APIC Page), APIC-access Page contains host physical address of guest APIC 
page, Virtual APIC Page contains host physical address of the page stored 
LAPIC registers. However, commit dc651f440f5 (KVM: nVMX: get rid of 
nested_get_page()) sets the address of APIC-access Page to the vmcs field 
of Virtual APIC Page which breaks the FlexPriority.

This patch fixes it by setting Virtual APIC Page to it related vmcs field.
