[PATCH 14/17] x86, mpx: new directory entry to addr helper

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Thu Mar 26 2015 - 14:34:36 EST



From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, to get from a bounds directory entry to the virtual
address of a bounds table, we simply mask off a few low bits.
However, the set of bits we mask off is different for 32 and
64-bit binaries.

This breaks the operation out in to a helper function and also
adds a temporary variable to store the result until we are
sure we are returning one.
