Subject: [PATCH v4 3/3] x86/iopl: Fix iopl capability check on Xen PV
Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2016 14:14:22 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8ce12013e6e4c0a44a97e316be4a6faff31bd5ea.1458162709.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1458162709.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1458162709.git.luto@kernel.org>

iopl(3) is supposed to work if iopl is already 3, even if
unprivileged.  This didn't work right on Xen PV.  Fix it.
