Summary
KVM: SVM: Don't BUG if userspace injects an interrupt with GIF=0
Details

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

KVM: SVM: Don't BUG if userspace injects an interrupt with GIF=0

Don't BUG/WARN on interrupt injection due to GIF being cleared, since it's trivial for userspace to force the situation via KVMSETVCPU_EVENTS (even if having at least a WARN there would be correct for KVM internally generated injections).
