[PATCH v4 1/4] KVM: nVMX: Setup VMX MSRs on loading CPU during nested_vmx_hardware_setup()
Posted by Sean Christopherson 3 weeks, 3 days ago
Move the call to nested_vmx_setup_ctls_msrs() from vmx_hardware_setup() to
nested_vmx_hardware_setup() so that the nested code can deal with ordering
dependencies without having to straddle vmx_hardware_setup() and
nested_vmx_hardware_setup().  Specifically, an upcoming change will
sanitize the vmcs12 fields based on hardware support, and that code needs
to run _before_ the MSRs are configured, because the lovely vmcs_enum MSR
depends on the max support vmcs12 field.

No functional change intended.
