KVM: Fix vcpu_array[0] races
In kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu(), add vcpu to vcpu_array iff it's safe to access vcpu via kvm_get_vcpu() and kvm_for_each_vcpu(), i.e. when there's no failure path requiring vcpu removal and destruction. Such order is important because vcpu_array accessors may end up referencing vcpu at vcpu_array[0] even before online_vcpus is set to 1. When online_vcpus=0, any call to kvm_get_vcpu() goes through array_index_nospec() and ends with an attempt to xa_load(vcpu_array, 0): int num_vcpus = atomic_read(&kvm->online_vcpus); i = array_index_nospec(i, num_vcpus); return xa_load(&kvm->vcpu_array, i); Similarly, when online_vcpus=0, a kvm_for_each_vcpu() does not iterate over an "empty" range, but actually [0, ULONG_MAX]: xa_for_each_range(&kvm->vcpu_array, idx, vcpup, 0, \ (atomic_read(&kvm->online_vcpus) - 1)) In both cases, such online_vcpus=0 edge case, even if leading to unnecessary calls to XArray API, should not be an issue; requesting unpopulated indexes/ranges is hand...
