The fixup_page_fault function in arch/x86/traps.c in Xen 4.0.1 and earlier
on 64-bit platforms, when paravirtualization is enabled, does not verify
that kernel mode is used to call the handle_gdt_ldt_mapping_fault function,
which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS BUG_ON)
via a crafted memory access.

Notes

Author Note
kees for full-virtualization issues, add qemu (and kvm)
