I certainly see some oddities:

We have this code:

static void svm_vcpu_put(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
        struct vcpu_svm *svm = to_svm(vcpu);
        int i;

        avic_vcpu_put(vcpu);

        ++vcpu->stat.host_state_reload;
        kvm_load_ldt(svm->host.ldt);
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
        loadsegment(fs, svm->host.fs);
        wrmsrl(MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE, current->thread.gsbase);
        load_gs_index(svm->host.gs);

Surely that should do load_gs_index() *before* wrmsrl().  But that's
not the problem at hand.

There are also some open-coded rdmsr and wrmsrs of MSR_GS_BASE --
surely these should be x86_gsbase_read_cpu() and
x86_gsbase_write_cpu().  (Those functions don't actually exist, but
the fsbase equivalents do, and we should add them.)  But that's also
not the problem at hand.

I haven't actually spotted the bug yet...
