Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.18 53/54] KVM: nVMX: Always enable TSC scaling for L2 when it was enabled for L1

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit 99482726452bdf8be9325199022b17fa6d7d58fe ]

Windows 10/11 guests with Hyper-V role (WSL2) enabled are observed to
hang upon boot or shortly after when a non-default TSC frequency was
set for L1. The issue is observed on a host where TSC scaling is
supported. The problem appears to be that Windows doesn't use TSC
frequency for its guests even when the feature is advertised and KVM
filters SECONDARY_EXEC_TSC_SCALING out when creating L2 controls from
L1's. This leads to L2 running with the default frequency (matching
host's) while L1 is running with an altered one.

Keep SECONDARY_EXEC_TSC_SCALING in secondary exec controls for L2 when
it was set for L1. TSC_MULTIPLIER is already correctly computed and
written by prepare_vmcs02().
