Subject: Re: [PATCH] KVM: arm/arm64: Allow usercopy to vcpu->arch.ctxt and
 arm64 debug

Are these copies done with a dynamic size? The normal way these get
whitelisted is via builtin_const sizes on the copy. Looking at
KVM_REG_SIZE(), though, it seems that would be a dynamic calculation.

I was planning to carry Paolo's patches, and I can take this one too.
If this poses a problem, then I could just do a two-phase commit of
the whitelisting code, leaving the very last commit (which enables the
defense for anything not yet whitelisted), until the KVM trees land.

What's preferred?

Thanks for looking at this!
