kvm_vcpu_check_block() is called while not in TASK_RUNNING, and therefore it cannot sleep. Writing to guest memory is therefore forbidden, but it can happen on AMD processors if kvm_check_nested_events() causes a vmexit. Fortunately, all events that are caught by kvm_check_nested_events() are also recognized by kvm_vcpu_has_events() through vendor callbacks such as kvm_x86_interrupt_allowed() or kvm_x86_ops.nested_ops->has_events(), so remove the call and postpone the actual processing to vcpu_block(). Opportunistically honor the return of kvm_check_nested_events(). KVM punted on the check in kvm_vcpu_running() because the only error path is if vmx_complete_nested_posted_interrupt() fails, in which case KVM exits to userspace with "internal error" i.e. the VM is likely dead anyways so it wasn't worth overloading the return of kvm_vcpu_running(). Add the check mostly so that KVM is consistent with itself; the return of the call via kvm_apic_accept_events()=>kvm_check_nested_events() that immediately follows _is_ checked.

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.
