From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@xxxxxxxxxxx> If "i" is the last element in the vcpu->arch.cpuid_entries[] array, it potentially can be exploited the vulnerability. this will out-of-bounds read and write the unused memory in host OS. This patch fixes it by modding the index to avoid the out-of-bounds. At the worst case, i == j and ej->function == e->function, the loop can bail out.
