    KVM: VMX: fix crash cleanup when KVM wasn't used · dbef2808

    If KVM wasn't used at all before we crash the cleanup procedure fails with
     BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffc8
     #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
     #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

     Oops: 0000 [#8] SMP PTI
     CPU: 0 PID: 3542 Comm: bash Kdump: loaded Tainted: G      D           5.6.0-rc2+ #823
     RIP: 0010:crash_vmclear_local_loaded_vmcss.cold+0x19/0x51 [kvm_intel]
    
    The root cause is that loaded_vmcss_on_cpu list is not yet initialized,
    we initialize it in hardware_enable() but this only happens when we start
    a VM.
    
    Previously, we used to have a bitmap with enabled CPUs and that was
    preventing [masking] the issue.
    
    Initialized loaded_vmcss_on_cpu list earlier, right before we assign
    crash_vmclear_loaded_vmcss pointer. blocked_vcpu_on_cpu list and
    blocked_vcpu_on_cpu_lock are moved altogether for consistency.
