An uninitialized gfn_to_hva_cache has ghc->len == 0, which causes
the accessors to croak very loudly.  While a BUG_ON is definitely
_too_ loud and a bug on its own, there is indeed an issue of using
the caches in such a way that they could not have been initialized,
because ghc->gpa == 0 might match and thus kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init
would not be called.

For the vmcs12_cache, the solution is simply to invoke
kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init unconditionally: we already know
that the cache does not match the current VMCS pointer.
For the shadow_vmcs12_cache, there is no similar condition
that checks the VMCS link pointer, so invalidate the cache
on VMXON.

Hm, in real usage, I thought an initialized-to-zeroes cache would have
been considered invalid regardless of the gpa, because ghc->generation
wouldn't have matched slots->generation.

But in the syzbot case perhaps it hadn't actually added any memslots
yet, so slots->generation == 0 and that doesn't help. Although....
would it even have got that far if there weren't any memslots at all?

Thanks, I was just staring at the report when I realised you'd already
fixed it.
