commit ad5996d9a0e8019c3ae5151e687939369acfe044 upstream.
Acquire kvm->srcu for the duration of ->set_nested_state() to fix a bug where nVMX derefences ->memslots without holding ->srcu or ->slots_lock.
The other half of nested migration, ->get_nested_state(), does not need to acquire ->srcu as it is a purely a dump of internal KVM (and CPU) state to userspace.
Detected as an RCU lockdep splat that is 100% reproducible by running KVM's state_test selftest with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y. Note that the failing function, kvm_is_visible_gfn(), is only checking the validity of a gfn, it's not actually accessing guest memory (which is more or less unsupported during vmx_set_nested_state() due to incorrect MMU state), i.e. vmx_set_nested_state() itself isn't fundamentally broken. In any case, setting nested state isn't a fast path so there's no reason to go out of our way to avoid taking ->srcu.
