KVM: nVMX: Consult only the "basic" exit reason when routing nested exit
commit 2ebac8bb3c2d35f5135466490fc8eeaf3f3e2d37 upstream. Consult only the basic exit reason, i.e. bits 15:0 of vmcs.EXIT_REASON, when determining whether a nested VM-Exit should be reflected into L1 or handled by KVM in L0. For better or worse, the switch statement in nested_vmx_exit_reflected() currently defaults to "true", i.e. reflects any nested VM-Exit without dedicated logic. Because the case statements only contain the basic exit reason, any VM-Exit with modifier bits set will be reflected to L1, even if KVM intended to handle it in L0. Practically speaking, this only affects EXIT_REASON_MCE_DURING_VMENTRY, i.e. a #MC that occurs on nested VM-Enter would be incorrectly routed to L1, as "failed VM-Entry" is the only modifier that KVM can currently encounter. The SMM modifiers will never be generated as KVM doesn't support/employ a SMI Transfer Monitor. Ditto for "exit from enclave", as KVM doesn't yet support virtualizing SGX, i.e. it's impossible to enter an enclave in a KVM guest (L1 or L2).
