[PATCH] KVM: x86/xen: Fix bug in kvm_xen_vcpu_set_attr()

From: Coleman Dietsch
Date: Thu Jul 28 2022 - 15:50:30 EST


This crash appears to be happening when vcpu->arch.xen.timer is already set and kvm_xen_init_timer(vcpu) is called.

During testing with the syzbot reproducer code it seemed apparent that the else if statement in the KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_TIMER switch case was not being reached, which is where the kvm_xen_stop_timer(vcpu) call is located.
