Re-execution after an emulation decode failure is only intended to
handle a case where two or vCPUs race to write a shadowed page, i.e.
we should never re-execute an instruction as part of MMIO emulation.
As handle_ept_misconfig() is only used for MMIO emulation, it should
pass EMULTYPE_NO_REEXECUTE when using the emulator to skip an instr
in the fast-MMIO case where VM_EXIT_INSTRUCTION_LEN is invalid.
And because the cr2 value passed to x86_emulate_instruction() is only
destined for use when retrying or reexecuting, we can simply call
emulate_instruction().
Fixes: d391f12070 ("x86/kvm/vmx: do not use vm-exit instruction length
for fast MMIO when running nested")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
