Sean Christopherson 39b4d43e60 KVM: x86/mmu: Get root level from walkers when retrieving MMIO SPTE
Get the so called "root" level from the low level shadow page table
walkers instead of manually attempting to calculate it higher up the
stack, e.g. in get_mmio_spte().  When KVM is using PAE shadow paging,
the starting level of the walk, from the callers perspective, is not
the CR3 root but rather the PDPTR "root".  Checking for reserved bits
from the CR3 root causes get_mmio_spte() to consume uninitialized stack
data due to indexing into sptes[] for a level that was not filled by
get_walk().  This can result in false positives and/or negatives
depending on what garbage happens to be on the stack.

Opportunistically nuke a few extra newlines.

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 Restructured Text 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.
