KVM: x86: Convert vapic synchronization to _cached functions (CVE-2013-6368)
In kvm_lapic_sync_from_vapic and kvm_lapic_sync_to_vapic there is the potential to corrupt kernel memory if userspace provides an address that is at the end of a page. This patches concerts those functions to use kvm_write_guest_cached and kvm_read_guest_cached. It also checks the vapic_address specified by userspace during ioctl processing and returns an error to userspace if the address is not a valid GPA. This is generally not guest triggerable, because the required write is done by firmware that runs before the guest. Also, it only affects AMD processors and oldish Intel that do not have the FlexPriority feature (unless you disable FlexPriority, of course; then newer processors are also affected).
