Thanks Paolo for confirmation. I'm asking because we had one incident
in our production with 4.14.129 kernel,
System is Skylake Gold cpu, first kvm errors, host hung afterwards

kernel: [1186161.091160] kvm: vmptrld           (null)/6bfc00000000 failed
kernel: [1186161.091537] kvm: vmclear fail:           (null)/6bfc00000000
kernel: [1186186.490300] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#54 stuck for
23s! [qemu:16639]

Hi Sasha, hi Greg,

Would be great if you can pick this patch also to 4.14 kernel.

Best regards,
Jack Wang
