KVM: avoid NULL pointer dereference in kvm_dirty_ring_push
kvm_vcpu_release() will call kvm_dirty_ring_free(), freeing
ring->dirty_gfns and setting it to NULL. Afterwards, it calls
kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy().
However, if closing the file descriptor races with KVM_RUN in such away
that vcpu->arch.st.preempted == 0, the following call stack leads to a
NULL pointer dereference in kvm_dirty_run_push():
mark_page_dirty_in_slot+0x192/0x270 arch/x86/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:3171
kvm_steal_time_set_preempted arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:4600 [inline]
kvm_arch_vcpu_put+0x34e/0x5b0 arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:4618
vcpu_put+0x1b/0x70 arch/x86/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:211
vmx_free_vcpu+0xcb/0x130 arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c:6985
kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy+0x76/0x290 arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:11219
kvm_vcpu_destroy arch/x86/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:441 [inline]
The fix is to release the dirty page ring after kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy
has run.
