[PATCH 4.4 036/210] x86/iopl: Fix iopl capability check on Xen PV
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Apr 10 2016 - 15:04:35 EST
4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit c29016cf41fe9fa994a5ecca607cf5f1cd98801e upstream.
iopl(3) is supposed to work if iopl is already 3, even if
unprivileged. This didn't work right on Xen PV. Fix it.
