commit dc158d23b33df9033bcc8e7117e8591dd2f9d125 upstream.
Before running a guest, the host process (e.g., QEMU) FP/VEC registers
are saved if they were being used, similarly to when the kernel uses FP
registers. The guest values are then loaded into regs, and the host
process registers will be restored lazily when it uses FP/VEC.
KVM HV has a bug here: the host process registers do get saved, but the
user MSR bits remain enabled, which indicates the registers are valid
for the process. After they are clobbered by running the guest, this
valid indication causes the host process to take on the FP/VEC register
values of the guest.
Fixes: 34e119c96b ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV P9: Reduce mtmsrd instructions required to save host SPRs")
