[PATCH 2/2] KVM: PPC: Fix kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl vcpu_load leak

Nicholas Piggin <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.kvm-ppc,org.ozlabs.lists.linuxppc-dev
Message-ID <[email protected]>
vcpu_put is not called if the user copy fails. This can result in preempt
notifier corruption and crashes, among other issues.

Reported-by: Alexey Kardashevskiy <[email protected]>
Fixes: b3cebfe8c1ca ("KVM: PPC: Move vcpu_load/vcpu_put down to each ioctl case in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl")
