From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jul 24 2019 - 15:38:44 EST


From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 73cb85568433feadb79e963bf2efba9b3e9ae3df upstream.

... as a malicious userspace can run a toy guest to generate invalid
virtual-APIC page addresses in L1, i.e. flood the kernel log with error
messages.
