Date: Tue Jul 07 2015 - 14:55:20 EST


3.19.8-ckt3 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit ce40cd3fc7fa40a6119e5fe6c0f2bc0eb4541009 upstream.

Malicious (or egregiously buggy) userspace can trigger it, but it
should never happen in normal operation.
