Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/mmu: Treat NX as a valid SPTE bit for NPT
Treat the NX bit as valid when using NPT, as KVM will set the NX bit when the NX huge page mitigation is enabled (mindblowing) and trigger the WARN that fires on reserved SPTE bits being set.
KVM has required NX support for SVM since commit b26a71a1a5b9 ("KVM: SVM:
Refuse to load kvm_amd if NX support is not available") for exactly this reason, but apparently it never occurred to anyone to actually test NPT with the mitigation enabled.
