KVM: x86/mmu: Check and free obsolete roots in kvm_mmu_reload()
Check request KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS to free obsolete roots in
kvm_mmu_reload() to prevent kvm_mmu_reload() from seeing a stale obsolete
root.
Since kvm_mmu_reload() can be called outside the
vcpu_enter_guest() path (e.g., kvm_arch_vcpu_pre_fault_memory()), it may be
invoked after a root has been marked obsolete and before vcpu_enter_guest()
is invoked to process KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS and set root.hpa to
invalid. This causes kvm_mmu_reload() to fail to load a new root, which
can lead to kvm_arch_vcpu_pre_fault_memory() being stuck in the while
loop in kvm_tdp_map_page() since RET_PF_RETRY is always returned due to
is_page_fault_stale().
Keep the existing check of KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS in
vcpu_enter_guest() since the cost of kvm_check_request() is negligible,
especially a check that's guarded by kvm_request_pending().
Export symbol of kvm_mmu_free_obsolete_roots() as kvm_mmu_reload() is
inline and may be called outside of kvm.ko.
