[ Upstream commit 88dddc11a8d6b09201b4db9d255b3394d9bc9e57 ]
If a KVM guest is reset while running a nested guest, free_nested will
disable the shadow VMCS execution control in the vmcs01. However,
on the next KVM_RUN vmx_vcpu_run would nevertheless try to sync
the VMCS12 to the shadow VMCS which has since been freed.
This causes a vmptrld of a NULL pointer on my machime, but Jan reports
the host to hang altogether. Let's see how much this trivial patch fixes.
