[PATCH v2] misc: fastrpc: restrict user apps from sending kernel RPC messages

From: Dmitry Baryshkov
Date: Fri Feb 12 2021 - 14:28:06 EST


Verify that user applications are not using the kernel RPC message
handle to restrict them from directly attaching to guest OS on the
remote subsystem. This is a port of CVE-2019-2308 fix.
