Defer APICv updates that occur while L2 is active until nested VM-Exit,
i.e. until L1 regains control. vmx_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl() assumes L1
is active and (a) stomps all over vmcs02 and (b) neglects to ever updated
vmcs01. E.g. if vmcs12 doesn't enable the TPR shadow for L2 (and thus no
APICv controls), L1 performs nested VM-Enter APICv inhibited, and APICv
becomes unhibited while L2 is active, KVM will set various APICv controls
in vmcs02 and trigger a failed VM-Entry. The kicker is that, unless
running with nested_early_check=1, KVM blames L1 and chaos ensues.
The obvious elephant in the room is whether or not KVM needs to disallow
APICv in L2 if it is inhibited in L1. Luckily, that's largely a moot
point as the only dynamic inhibit conditions that affect VMX are Hyper-V
and IRQ blocking. IRQ blocking is firmly a debug-only feature, and L1
probably deserves whatever mess it gets by enabling AutoEOI while running
L2 with APICv enabled.
Lack of dynamic toggling is also why this scenario is all but impossible
to encounter in KVM's current form. But a future patch will pend an
APICv update request _during_ vCPU creation to plug a race where a vCPU
that's being created doesn't get included in the "all vCPUs request"
because it's not yet visible to other vCPUs. If userspaces restores L2
after VM creation (hello, KVM selftests), the first KVM_RUN will occur
while L2 is active and thus service the APICv update request made during
VM creation.
