Subject: [PATCH 4.19 071/103] KVM/nVMX: Do not validate that posted_intr_desc_addr is page aligned

4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: KarimAllah Ahmed <karahmed@...zon.de>

commit 22a7cdcae6a4a3c8974899e62851d270956f58ce upstream.

The spec only requires the posted interrupt descriptor address to be
64-bytes aligned (i.e. bits[0:5] == 0). Using page_address_valid also
forces the address to be page aligned.

Only validate that the address does not cross the maximum physical address
without enforcing a page alignment.
