When an EVMCS enabled L1 guest on KVM will tries doing enlightened VMEnter
with EVMCS GPA = 0 the host crashes because the
evmcs_gpa != vmx->nested.hv_evmcs_vmptr
condition in nested_vmx_handle_enlightened_vmptrld() will evaluate to
false (as nested.hv_evmcs_vmptr is zeroed after init). The crash will
happen on vmx->nested.hv_evmcs pointer dereference.
Another problematic EVMCS ptr value is '-1' but it only causes host crash
after nested_release_evmcs() invocation. The problem is exactly the same as
with '0', we mistakenly think that the EVMCS pointer hasn't changed and
thus nested.hv_evmcs_vmptr is valid.
Resolve the issue by adding an additional !vmx->nested.hv_evmcs
check to nested_vmx_handle_enlightened_vmptrld(), this way we will
always be trying kvm_vcpu_map() when nested.hv_evmcs is NULL
and this is supposed to catch all invalid EVMCS GPAs.
Also, initialize hv_evmcs_vmptr to '0' in nested_release_evmcs()
to be consistent with initialization where we don't currently
set hv_evmcs_vmptr to '-1'.
