Subject: [PATCH] KVM: Correct ordering of ldt reload wrt fs/gs reload
Date: Tue, 19 Oct 2010 18:48:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1287506915-4745-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)

If fs or gs refer to the ldt, they must be reloaded after the ldt.  Reorder
the code to that effect.

Userspace code that uses the ldt with kvm is nonexistent, so this doesn't fix
a user-visible bug.
