Ok,

some more experimenting Babu and I did lead us to:

 }

applied on the guest kernel which fixes the issue. And let me add Hugh
who did that PCID stuff at the time. So lemme summarize for Hugh and to
ask him nicely to sanity-check me. :-)

Basically, you have an AMD host which supports PCID and INVPCID and you
boot on it a 4.9 guest. It explodes like the panic below.

What fixes it is this:

diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h
index f5ca15622dc9..259aa4889cad 100644

+
 	invpcid_flush_one(X86_CR3_PCID_ASID_KERN, addr);
 }

---

and the reason why it does, IMHO, is because on AMD, kaiser_enabled is
false because AMD is not affected by Meltdown, which means, there's no
user/kernel pagetables split.

And that also means, you have global TLB entries which means that if you
look at that __native_flush_tlb_single() function, it needs to flush
global TLB entries on CPUs with X86_FEATURE_INVPCID_SINGLE by doing an
INVLPG in the kaiser_enabled=0 case. Errgo, the above hunk.

But I might be completely off here thus this note...

Thoughts?

Thx.
