KVM: x86: Stack size is overridden by __linearize

Browse source

When performing segmented-read/write in the emulator for stack operations, it
ignores the stack size, and uses the ad_bytes as indication for the pointer
size. As a result, a wrong address may be accessed.

To fix this behavior, we can remove the masking of address in __linearize and
perform it beforehand.  It is already done for the operands (so currently it is
inefficiently done twice). It is missing in two cases:
1. When using rip_relative
2. On fetch_bit_operand that changes the address.

This patch masks the address on these two occassions, and removes the masking
from __linearize.

Note that it does not mask EIP during fetch. In protected/legacy mode code
fetch when RIP >= 2^32 should result in #GP and not wrap-around. Since we make
limit checks within __linearize, this is the expected behavior.

Partial revert of commit 518547b32a (KVM: x86: Emulator does not
calculate address correctly, 2014-09-30).
