CVE-2022-50224

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

KVM: x86/mmu: Treat NX as a valid SPTE bit for NPT

Treat the NX bit as valid when using NPT, as KVM will set the NX bit when
the NX huge page mitigation is enabled (mindblowing) and trigger the WARN
that fires on reserved SPTE bits being set.

KVM has required NX support for SVM since commit b26a71a1a5b9 ("KVM: SVM:
Refuse to load kvm_amd if NX support is not available") for exactly this
reason, but apparently it never occurred to anyone to actually test NPT
with the mitigation enabled.
