KVM: VMX: Do not fully reset PI descriptor on vCPU reset
Parts of the posted interrupt descriptor configure host behavior, such as the notification vector and destination. Overwriting them with zero as done during vCPU reset breaks posted interrupts. KVM (re-)writes these fields on certain occasions and belatedly fixes the situation in many cases. However, if you have a guest configured with "idle=poll", for example, the fields might stay zero forever. Do not reset the full descriptor in vmx_vcpu_reset(). Instead, reset only the outstanding notifications and leave everything else untouched. Signed-off-by: Jan H. Schönherr <jschoenh@amazon.de> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
