Now, reload mmu is before event injecting, can below bug be triggered again?

    KVM: Fix mmu_reload() clash with nested vmx event injection

    Currently the inject_pending_event() call during guest entry happens after
    kvm_mmu_reload().  This is for historical reasons - we used to
    inject_pending_event() in atomic context, while kvm_mmu_reload() needs task
    context.

    A problem is that nested vmx can cause the mmu context to be reset, if event
    injection is intercepted and causes a #VMEXIT instead (the #VMEXIT resets
    CR0/CR3/CR4).  If this happens, we end up with invalid root_hpa, and since
    kvm_mmu_reload() has already run, no one will fix it and we end up entering
    the guest this way.

    Fix by reordering event injection to be before kvm_mmu_reload().  Use
    ->cancel_injection() to undo if kvm_mmu_reload() fails.
