[PATCH 4.9 143/165] KVM: nVMX: Dont emulate instructions in guest mode

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2020-02-27 13:51:08
Also in: lkml

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 07721feee46b4b248402133228235318199b05ec ]

vmx_check_intercept is not yet fully implemented. To avoid emulating
instructions disallowed by the L1 hypervisor, refuse to emulate
instructions by default.
