Summary
KVM: x86: Free kvm_cpuid_entry2 array on post-KVM_RUN KVM_SET_CPUID{,2}
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

KVM: x86: Free kvmcpuidentry2 array on post-KVMRUN KVMSET_CPUID{,2}

Free the "struct kvmcpuidentry2" array on successful post-KVMRUN KVMSETCPUID{,2} to fix a memory leak, the callers of kvmset_cpuid() free the array only on failure.
