Use an unsigned long for 'exit_qual' in nested_vmx_reflect_vmexit(), the
EXIT_QUALIFICATION field is naturally sized, not a 32-bit field.
The bug is most easily observed by doing VMXON (or any VMX instruction)
in L2 with a negative displacement, in which case dropping the upper
bits on nested VM-Exit results in L1 calculating the wrong virtual
address for the memory operand, e.g. "vmxon -0x8(%rbp)" yields:
Unhandled cpu exception 14 #PF at ip 0000000000400553
rbp=0000000000537000 cr2=0000000100536ff8

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
