KVM: VMX: remove bogus WARN_ON in handle_ept_misconfig
Remove the WARN_ON in handle_ept_misconfig() as it is unnecessary
and causes false positives. Return the unmodified result of
kvm_mmu_page_fault() instead of converting a system error code to
KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN so that userspace sees the error code of the
actual failure, not a generic "we don't know what went wrong".
* kvm_mmu_page_fault() will WARN if reserved bits are set in the
SPTEs, i.e. it covers the case where an EPT misconfig occurred
because of a KVM bug.
* The WARN_ON will fire on any system error code that is hit while
handling the fault, e.g. -ENOMEM from mmu_topup_memory_caches()
while handling a legitmate MMIO EPT misconfig or -EFAULT from
kvm_handle_bad_page() if the corresponding HVA is invalid. In
either case, userspace should receive the original error code
and firing a warning is incorrect behavior as KVM is operating
as designed.
