Subject: [PATCH 5.2 63/66] KVM: nVMX: Clear pending KVM_REQ_GET_VMCS12_PAGES when leaving nested

From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@...mens.com>

commit cf64527bb33f6cec2ed50f89182fc4688d0056b6 upstream.

Letting this pend may cause nested_get_vmcs12_pages to run against an
invalid state, corrupting the effective vmcs of L1.

This was triggerable in QEMU after a guest corruption in L2, followed by
a L1 reset.
