The root cause lies in the specific AMD CPU behaviour which manifests itself as unusable segment attributes on SYSRET. The corresponding work around for the kernel is the following: 61f01dd941ba ("x86_64, asm: Work around AMD SYSRET SS descriptor attribute issue") In other turn virtualization side treated unusable segment incorrectly and restored CPL from SS attributes, which were zeroed out few lines above. In current patch it is assured only that P bit is cleared in VMCB.save state and segment attributes are not zeroed out if segment is not presented or is unusable, therefore CPL can be safely restored from DPL field. This is only one part of the fix, since QEMU side should be fixed accordingly not to zero out attributes on its side. Corresponding patch will follow.
