KVM: x86: fix wbinvd_dirty_mask use-after-free
commit bd768e146624cbec7122ed15dead8daa137d909d upstream. vcpu->arch.wbinvd_dirty_mask may still be used after freeing it, corrupting memory. For example, the following call trace may set a bit in an already freed cpu mask: kvm_arch_vcpu_load vcpu_load vmx_free_vcpu_nested vmx_free_vcpu kvm_arch_vcpu_free Fix this by deferring freeing of wbinvd_dirty_mask.
