4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>

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.
