Uros Bizjak 8607d7ccbf x86/fpu: Fix AMD X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK fixup
[ Upstream commit 5d31174f3c8c465d9dbe88f6b9d1fe5716f44981 ]

The assembly snippet in restore_fpregs_from_fpstate() that implements
X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK fixup loads the value from a random variable,
preferably the one that is already in the L1 cache.

However, the access to fpinit_state via *fpstate pointer is not
implemented correctly. The "m" asm constraint requires dereferenced
pointer variable, otherwise the compiler just reloads the value
via temporary stack slot. The current asm code reflects this:

     mov    %rdi,(%rsp)
     ...
     fildl  (%rsp)

With dereferenced pointer variable, the code does what the
comment above the asm snippet says:

     fildl  (%rdi)

Also, remove the pointless %P operand modifier. The modifier is
ineffective on non-symbolic references - it was used to prevent
%rip-relative addresses in .altinstr sections, but FILDL in the
.text section can use %rip-relative addresses without problems.

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.

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.
