Subject: [PATCH] x86/xen: allow userspace access during hypercalls
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Userspace application can do a hypercall through /dev/xen/privcmd, and
some for some hypercalls argument is a pointers to user-provided
structure. When SMAP is supported and enabled, hypervisor can't access.
So, lets allow it.
The same applies to HYPERVISOR_dm_op, where additionally privcmd driver
carefully verify buffer addresses.
