3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nadav Amit <namit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3f6f1480d86bf9fc16c160d803ab1d006e3058d5 upstream. The decode phase of the x86 emulator assumes that every instruction with the ModRM flag, and which can be used with RIP-relative addressing, has either SrcMem or DstMem. This is not the case for several instructions - prefetch, hint-nop and clflush. Adding SrcMem|NoAccess for prefetch and hint-nop and SrcMem for clflush. This fixes CVE-2014-8480.
