7.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sean Christopherson commit 115f9405a2ed6d78ee7ad8436bdd638743f6d1d4 upstream. Extend the "EFER.LMA && !CR4.PAE" check, which exists largely to guard against KVM configuring a paging32 MMU with more than 2 levels of paging, with a very explicit check for exactly that: that KVM isn't trying to walk more levels of paging than the MMU template provides. I.e. harden KVM against all bugs that would cause KVM to generates accesses beyond the bounds of guest_walker's arrays, regardless of how KVM ended up with the misconfigured MMU. Note, don't use w->cpu_role.base.level directly as the paging64 template only provides two levels of page tables for PAE paging on 32-bit hosts, and handles the third level by manually emulating the PDPTR access.
