From f48a75b0c10ac79b287ca2b580ecb9ea2f696607 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>

Subject: [PATCH] x86/pv: Remove unsafe bits from the mod_l?_entry() fastpath

All changes in writeability and cacheability must go through full
re-validation.

Rework the logic as a whitelist, to make it clearer to follow.

This is XSA-182
