commit f7c90c2aa4004808dff777ba6ae2c7294dd06851 upstream. In some cases 32-bit PAE PV guests still write PTEs directly instead of using hypercalls. This is especially bad when clearing a PTE as this is done via 32-bit writes which will produce intermediate L1TF attackable PTEs. Change the code to use hypercalls instead.

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.
