commit 917248144db5d7320655dbb41d3af0b8a0f3d589 upstream. __kvm_map_gfn()'s call to gfn_to_pfn_memslot() is * relatively expensive * in certain cases (such as when done from atomic context) cannot be called Stashing gfn-to-pfn mapping should help with both cases. This is part of CVE-2019-3016.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
