Subject: [PATCH 3/3] i386: do kvm_put_msr_feature_control() first thing when
 vCPU is reset

RH-Author: Miroslav Rezanina <mrezanin@redhat.com>
RH-MergeRequest: 219: Synchronize qemu-6.2.0-20.el8.1 build from RHEL 8.7 to RHEL 8.8
RH-Bugzilla: 2125271

RH-Commit: [2/2] 08e1e67db96801e4a35aa6b60a93b2c2f1641220

kvm_put_sregs2() fails to reset 'locked' CR4/CR0 bits upon vCPU reset when
it is in VMX root operation. Do kvm_put_msr_feature_control() before
kvm_put_sregs2() to (possibly) kick vCPU out of VMX root operation. It also
seems logical to do kvm_put_msr_feature_control() before
kvm_put_nested_state() and not after it, especially when 'real' nested
state is set.
