[PATCH 50/64] KVM: x86: Use struct_group() to zero decode cache

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-27 21:08:21
Also in: dri-devel, linux-block, linux-hardening, linux-kbuild, linux-staging, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: kernel virtual machine for x86 (kvm/x86), the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Sean Christopherson, Paolo Bonzini, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memset(), avoid intentionally writing across
neighboring fields.

Add struct_group() to mark region of struct x86_emulate_ctxt that should
be initialized to zero.
