[PATCH 4.14 144/146] x86/ldt: Make LDT pgtable free conditional

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7f414195b0c3612acd12b4611a5fe75995cf10c7 upstream.

Andy prefers to be paranoid about the pagetable free in the error path of
write_ldt(). Make it conditional and warn whenever the installment of a
secondary LDT fails.
