[Ben Hutchings]

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

From: Andrew Honig <ahonig@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 75f139aaf896d6fdeec2e468ddfa4b2fe469bf40 upstream.

This adds a memory barrier when performing a lookup into
the vmcs_field_to_offset_table.  This is related to
CVE-2017-5753.
