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

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

From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@intel.com>

commit 34333cc6c2cb021662fd32e24e618d1b86de95bf upstream.

Regarding segments with a limit==0xffffffff, the SDM officially states:

    When the effective limit is FFFFFFFFH (4 GBytes), these accesses may
    or may not cause the indicated exceptions.  Behavior is
    implementation-specific and may vary from one execution to another.

In practice, all CPUs that support VMX ignore limit checks for "flat
segments", i.e. an expand-up data or code segment with base=0 and
limit=0xffffffff.  This is subtly different than wrapping the effective
address calculation based on the address size, as the flat segment
behavior also applies to accesses that would wrap the 4g boundary, e.g.
a 4-byte access starting at 0xffffffff will access linear addresses
0xffffffff, 0x0, 0x1 and 0x2.
