Subject: [PATCH v2 0/7] KVM: nVMX: Fix IPIv vs. nested posted interrupts
Fix a bug where KVM injects L2's nested posted interrupt into L1 as a
nested VM-Exit instead of triggering PI processing. The actual bug is
technically a generic nested posted interrupts problem, but due to the
way that KVM handles interrupt delivery, the issue is mostly limited to
to IPI virtualization being enabled.
Found by the nested posted interrupt KUT test on SPR.
If it weren't for an annoying TOCTOU bug waiting to happen, the fix would
be quite simple, e.g. it's really just:

v2:
- Split kvm_get_apic_interrupt() into has+ack to avoid marking the IRQ as
in-service in vmcs02 instead of vmcs01. [Nathan]
- Gather reviews, but only for the patches that didn't meaningful change (all
two of them). [Chao]
- Drop Cc: stable@ from all patches. For real world hypervisors, this is
unlikely to cause functional issues, only loss of IPI virtualization
performance due to the unnecessary VM-Exit. Whereas evidenced by my screwup
in v1, this code is plenty subtle enough to introduce bugs.
- Drop the patch to store nested.posted_intr_nv as an int, as there is no need
to explicitly match -1 (as a signed int) in this approach.
- Add a patch to assert vcpu->mutex is held when getting vmcs12, as I was
"this" close to yanking out nested.posted_intr_nv, until I realized that
accessing a different vCPU's vmcs12 in the IPI path is unsafe.
