Explicitly clear the EXIT_QUALIFCATION field when injecting an EPT misconfig into L1, as required by the VMX architecture. Per the SDM: This field is saved for VM exits due to the following causes: debug exceptions; page-fault exceptions; start-up IPIs (SIPIs); system-management interrupts (SMIs) that arrive immediately after the execution of I/O instructions; task switches; INVEPT; INVLPG; INVPCID; INVVPID; LGDT; LIDT; LLDT; LTR; SGDT; SIDT; SLDT; STR; VMCLEAR; VMPTRLD; VMPTRST; VMREAD; VMWRITE; VMXON; WBINVD; WBNOINVD; XRSTORS; XSAVES; control-register accesses; MOV DR; I/O instructions; MWAIT; accesses to the APIC-access page; EPT violations; EOI virtualization; APIC-write emulation; page-modification log full; SPP-related events; and instruction timeout. For all other VM exits, this field is cleared. Generating EXIT_QUALIFICATION from vcpu->arch.exit_qualification is wrong for all (two) paths that lead to nested_ept_inject_page_fault(). For EPT violations (the common case), vcpu->arch.exit_qualification will have been set by handle_ept_violation() to vmcs02.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, i.e. contains the information of a EPT violation and thus is likely non-zero. For an EPT misconfig, which can reach FNAME(walk_addr_generic) and thus inject a nEPT misconfig if KVM created an MMIO SPTE that became stale, vcpu->arch.exit_qualification will hold the information from the last EPT violation VM-Exit, as vcpu->arch.exit_qualification is _only_ written by handle_ept_violation().
