No out_set_gif upstream anymore after
d5cd6f340145 ("KVM: nSVM: Avoid freeing uninitialized pointers in svm_set_nested_state()")
and it looks like you hit the issue this patch is fixing.
Can you test with the above commit cherrypicked ontop of your what looks
like 5.9.1-ish tree?
If that fixes it, we should route this patch to stable.
Thx.
