[PATCH 4.4 303/342] KVM: x86: fix conversion of addresses to linear in 32-bit protected mode

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 01 2016 - 19:10:05 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0c1d77f4ba5cc9c05a29adca3d6466cdf4969b70 upstream.

Commit e8dd2d2d641c ("Silence compiler warning in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c",
2015-09-06) broke boot of the Hurd. The bug is that the "default:"
case actually could modify "la", but after the patch this change is
not reflected in *linear.

The bug is visible whenever a non-zero segment base causes the linear
address to wrap around the 4GB mark.
