[PATCH 3.16 071/233] KVM: x86: zero base3 of unusable segments

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 09 2017 - 19:01:14 EST


3.16.48-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Radim KrÄmÃÅ <rkrcmar@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f0367ee1d64d27fa08be2407df5c125442e885e3 upstream.

Static checker noticed that base3 could be used uninitialized if the
segment was not present (useable). Random stack values probably would
not pass VMCS entry checks.
