KVM: x86: clear vcpu->run->hypercall.ret before exiting for KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL
QEMU up to 9.2.0 is assuming that vcpu->run->hypercall.ret is 0 on exit and it never modifies it when processing KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL. Make this explicit in the code, to avoid breakage when KVM starts modifying that field. This in principle is not a good idea... It would have been much better if KVM had set the field to -KVM_ENOSYS from the beginning, so that a dumb userspace that does nothing on KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL would tell the guest it does not support KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE. However, breaking userspace is a Very Bad Thing, as everybody should know. Reported-by: Binbin Wu <binbin.wu@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
