Paolo Bonzini 0616125c46 KVM: x86: do not modify masked bits of shared MSRs
commit de1fca5d6e0105c9d33924e1247e2f386efc3ece upstream.

"Shared MSRs" are guest MSRs that are written to the host MSRs but
keep their value until the next return to userspace.  They support
a mask, so that some bits keep the host value, but this mask is
only used to skip an unnecessary MSR write and the value written
to the MSR is always the guest MSR.

Fix this and, while at it, do not update smsr->values[slot].curr if
for whatever reason the wrmsr fails.  This should only happen due to
reserved bits, so the value written to smsr->values[slot].curr
will not match when the user-return notifier and the host value will
always be restored.  However, it is untidy and in rare cases this
can actually avoid spurious WRMSRs on return to userspace.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
