3.2.73-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Northup <digitaleric@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 54a20552e1eae07aa240fa370a0293e006b5faed upstream.
It was found that a guest can DoS a host by triggering an infinite
stream of "alignment check" (#AC) exceptions. This causes the
microcode to enter an infinite loop where the core never receives
another interrupt. The host kernel panics pretty quickly due to the
effects (CVE-2015-5307).

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
- Add definition of AC_VECTOR
- Adjust filename, context]
