From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> For VMX, the dirty PDPTEs needs to be loaded before the coming VMENTER via vmx_load_mmu_pgd() if EPT is enabled. But not all paths that call load_pdptrs() will cause vmx_load_mmu_pgd() to be invoked. Normally, kvm_mmu_reset_context() and KVM_REQ_LOAD_MMU_PGD are used to launch later vmx_load_mmu_pgd(). The commit d81135a57aa6("KVM: x86: do not reset mmu if CR0.CD and CR0.NW are changed") skips kvm_mmu_reset_context() after load_pdptrs() when changing CR0.CD and CR0.NW. The commit 21823fbda552("KVM: x86: Invalidate all PGDs for the current PCID on MOV CR3 w/ flush") skips KVM_REQ_LOAD_MMU_PGD after load_pdptrs() when rewriting the CR3 with the same value. The commit a91a7c709600("KVM: X86: Don't reset mmu context when toggling X86_CR4_PGE") skips kvm_mmu_reset_context() after load_pdptrs() when changing CR4.PGE.
