[PATCH v2] KVM: x86: Do not block APIC write for non ICR registers

From: Suravee Suthikulpanit
Date: Mon Jul 25 2022 - 01:34:31 EST


The commit 5413bcba7ed5 ("KVM: x86: Add support for vICR APIC-write
VM-Exits in x2APIC mode") introduces logic to prevent APIC write
for offset other than ICR in kvm_apic_write_nodecode() function.
This breaks x2AVIC support, which requires KVM to trap and emulate
x2APIC MSR writes.

Therefore, removes the warning and modify to logic to allow MSR write.

Fixes: 5413bcba7ed5 ("KVM: x86: Add support for vICR APIC-write VM-Exits in x2APIC mode")
