Sean Christopherson a788fbb763 KVM: VMX: Skip VMCLEAR logic during emergency reboots if CR4.VMXE=0
Bail from vmx_emergency_disable() without processing the list of loaded
VMCSes if CR4.VMXE=0, i.e. if the CPU can't be post-VMXON.  It should be
impossible for the list to have entries if VMX is already disabled, and
even if that invariant doesn't hold, VMCLEAR will #UD anyways, i.e.
processing the list is pointless even if it somehow isn't empty.

Assuming no existing KVM bugs, this should be a glorified nop.  The
primary motivation for the change is to avoid having code that looks like
it does VMCLEAR, but then skips VMXON, which is nonsensical.

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.
