Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] Fix a race between posted interrupt delivery and
 migration in a nested VM

This patch set aims to fix a race condition between posted interrupt
delivery and migration for a nested VM. In particular, we proves that when
a nested vCPU is halted and just migrated, it will lose a posted
interrupt from another vCPU in the same VM.

Changelog:

v1 -> v2:
 - Replace the original vmcs12 bug fix patch into one that processes nested
   state pages request in a common function [paolo].
 - Update the commit messages [seanjc, oupton].
 - Remove vcpu_run_interruptable(), use __vcpu_run() instead [seanjc].
 - Fix format issue in prepare_posted_intr_desc() [seanjc].
 - Rebase to kvm/queue.
