KVM: x86: Protect DR-based index computations from Spectre-v1/L1TF attacks
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1864775 commit ea740059 upstream. This fixes a Spectre-v1/L1TF vulnerability in __kvm_set_dr() and kvm_get_dr(). Both kvm_get_dr() and kvm_set_dr() (a wrapper of __kvm_set_dr()) are exported symbols so KVM should tream them conservatively from a security perspective.
