Subject: KVM MMU: check pending exception before injecting APF
From: Haozhong Zhang <haozhong.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 2a266f23550be997d783f27e704b9b40c4010292 upstream.
For example, when two APF's for page ready happen after one exit and
the first one becomes pending, the second one will result in #DF.
Instead, just handle the second page fault synchronously.
