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

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Date: 2016-02-19 17:11:51
Also in: kvm, lkml
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

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.
