No, that is actually unsafe and could break things (as would you patch
above).

I'm thinking the below patch ought to cure things:

---
Subject: x86/uaccess: Don't leak the AC flags into __get_user() argument evalidation

Identical to __put_user(); the __get_user() argument evalution will too
leak UBSAN crud into the __uaccess_begin() / __uaccess_end() region.
While uncommon this was observed to happen for:

drivers/xen/gntdev.c: if (__get_user(old_status, batch->status[i]))

where UBSAN added array bound checking.

This complements commit:

6ae865615fc4 ("x86/uaccess: Dont leak the AC flag into __put_user() argument evaluation")
