syzkaller has found that it can trip a warning in KVM's exception emulation infrastructure by repeatedly injecting exceptions into the guest. While it's unlikely that a reasonable VMM will do this, further investigation of the issue reveals that KVM can potentially discard the "pending" SEA state. While the handling of KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS presumes that userspace-injected SEAs are realized immediately, in reality the emulated exception entry is deferred until the next call to KVM_RUN. Hack-a-fix the immediate issues by committing the pending exceptions to the vCPU's architectural state immediately in KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS. This is no different to the way KVM-injected exceptions are handled in KVM_RUN where we potentially call __kvm_adjust_pc() before returning to userspace.

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 reStructuredText 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.
