Sean Christopherson 8081ad06b6 KVM: x86: Set KVM_REQ_EVENT if run is canceled with req_immediate_exit set
Re-request KVM_REQ_EVENT if vcpu_enter_guest() bails after processing
pending requests and an immediate exit was requested.  This fixes a bug
where a pending event, e.g. VMX preemption timer, is delayed and/or lost
if the exit was deferred due to something other than a higher priority
_injected_ event, e.g. due to a pending nested VM-Enter.  This bug only
affects the !injected case as kvm_x86_ops.cancel_injection() sets
KVM_REQ_EVENT to redo the injection, but that's purely serendipitous
behavior with respect to the deferred event.

Note, emulated preemption timer isn't the only event that can be
affected, it simply happens to be the only event where not re-requesting
KVM_REQ_EVENT is blatantly visible to the guest.

README

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.
