commit b2d7a075a1ccef2fb321d595802190c8e9b39004 upstream.
Using only 32-bit writes for the pte will result in an intermediate
L1TF vulnerable PTE. When running as a Xen PV guest this will at once
switch the guest to shadow mode resulting in a loss of performance.
Use arch_atomic64_xchg() instead which will perform the requested
operation atomically with all 64 bits.
Some performance considerations according to:
https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/ad/dc/Intel-Xeon-Scalable-Processor-throughput-latency.pdf
The main number should be the latency, as there is no tight loop around
native_ptep_get_and_clear().
"lock cmpxchg8b" has a latency of 20 cycles, while "lock xchg" (with a
memory operand) isn't mentioned in that document. "lock xadd" (with xadd
having 3 cycles less latency than xchg) has a latency of 11, so we can
assume a latency of 14 for "lock xchg".
