Analysis from Sean:

 | svm->next_rip is reset in svm_vcpu_run() only after calling 
 | svm_exit_handlers_fastpath(), which will cause SVM's 
 | skip_emulated_instruction() to write a stale RIP.
 
Let's get rid of handle_fastpath_set_msr_irqoff() in svm_exit_handlers_fastpath()
to have a quick fix.

This should only happen when svm->vmcb->control.next_rip is not set by
hardware as skip_emulated_instruction() itself sets 'svm->next_rip'
otherwise, right?

which in the light of the whole seeries seems to be appropriate, so:

The bug is reported here
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209155 , the old machine
which the reporter uses doesn't have NRIP save on #VMEXIT support. :)
