KVM: nVMX: Unconditionally clear nested.pi_pending on nested VM-Enter
Clear nested.pi_pending on nested VM-Enter even if L2 will run without posted interrupts enabled. If nested.pi_pending is left set from a previous L2, vmx_complete_nested_posted_interrupt() will pick up the stale flag and exit to userspace with an "internal emulation error" due the new L2 not having a valid nested.pi_desc. Arguably, vmx_complete_nested_posted_interrupt() should first check for posted interrupts being enabled, but it's also completely reasonable that KVM wouldn't screw up a fundamental flag. Not to mention that the mere existence of nested.pi_pending is a long-standing bug as KVM shouldn't move the posted interrupt out of the IRR until it's actually processed, e.g. KVM effectively drops an interrupt when it performs a nested VM-Exit with a "pending" posted interrupt. Fixing the mess is a future problem. Prior to vmx_complete_nested_posted_interrupt() interpreting a null PI descriptor as an error, this was a benign bug as the null PI descriptor effectively served as a check on PI not being enabled. Even then, the new flow did not become problematic until KVM started checking the result of kvm_check_nested_events().
