In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:KVM: SEV: Protect *all* of sev_mem_enc_register_region() with kvm->lockTake and hold kvm->lock for before checking sev_guest() in
sev_mem_enc_register_region(), as sev_guest() isn't stable unless kvm->lock
is held (or KVM can guarantee KVM_SEV_INIT{2} has completed and can't
rollack state).  If KVM_SEV_INIT{2} fails, KVM can end up trying to add to
a not-yet-initialized sev->regions_list, e.g. triggering a #GPOops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000000: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI
