    [ Upstream commit f48b4711dd6e1cf282f9dfd159c14a305909c97c ]
    
    When guest transitions from/to long-mode by modifying MSR_EFER.LMA,
    the list of shared MSRs to be saved/restored on guest<->host
    transitions is updated (See vmx_set_efer() call to setup_msrs()).
    
    On every entry to guest, vcpu_enter_guest() calls
    vmx_prepare_switch_to_guest(). This function should also take care
    of setting the shared MSRs to be saved/restored. However, the
    function does nothing in case we are already running with loaded
    guest state (vmx->loaded_cpu_state != NULL).
    
    This means that even when guest modifies MSR_EFER.LMA which results
    in updating the list of shared MSRs, it isn't being taken into account
    by vmx_prepare_switch_to_guest() because it happens while we are
    running with loaded guest state.
    
    To fix above mentioned issue, add a flag to mark that the list of
    shared MSRs has been updated and modify vmx_prepare_switch_to_guest()
    to set shared MSRs when running with host state *OR* list of shared
    MSRs has been updated.
    
    Note that this issue was mistakenly introduced by commit
    678e315e ("KVM: vmx: add dedicated utility to access guest's
    kernel_gs_base") because previously vmx_set_efer() always called
    vmx_load_host_state() which resulted in vmx_prepare_switch_to_guest() to
    set shared MSRs.
