Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening
This patch fixes crashes during boot for HVM guests on older (pre HVM vector callback) Xen versions. Without this, current kernels will always fail to boot on those Xen versions.

This means that any pointer derived from it needs to be adjusted. The only value that this applies to is the vcpu_info pointer for VCPU 0. For PV and HVM with the callback vector feature, this gets done via the smp_ops prepare_boot_cpu callback. Older Xen versions do not support the HVM callback vector, so there is no Xen-specific smp_ops set up in that scenario. So, the vcpu_info pointer for VCPU 0 never gets set to the proper value, and the first reference of it will be bad. Fix this by resetting it immediately after the remap.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
