Hi Marc,

This is wrong: commit 6022fcc0e87a0eb5e9a72b15ed70dd29ebcb7343

The above is not my original patch and it should not be tagged for stable, as it introduces the same kind of bug I intended to fix:

array_index_nospec() can now return kvm->arch.vgic.nr_spis + VGIC_NR_PRIVATE_IRQS and this is not what you want. So, in this case the following line of code is just fine as it is:

intid = array_index_nospec(intid, kvm->arch.vgic.nr_spis + VGIC_NR_PRIVATE_IRQS);

As the commit log says, my patch fixes:

commit 41b87599c74300027f305d7b34368ec558978ff2

not both:

commit 41b87599c74300027f305d7b34368ec558978ff2

and

commit bea2ef803ade3359026d5d357348842bca9edcf1

If you want to apply the fix on top of bea2ef803ade3359026d5d357348842bca9edcf1 then you should apply this instead:

The commit log should remain the same.

I indeed completely fscked up the conflict resolution, clearly not engaging my brain. I'll fix that quickly.

Thanks for the heads up.
