Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 238/305] xen/pciback: Save xen_pci_op commands before processing it

4.2.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@...cle.com>

commit 8135cf8b092723dbfcc611fe6fdcb3a36c9951c5 upstream.

Double fetch vulnerabilities that happen when a variable is
fetched twice from shared memory but a security check is only
performed the first time.

The xen_pcibk_do_op function performs a switch statements on the op->cmd
value which is stored in shared memory. Interestingly this can result
in a double fetch vulnerability depending on the performed compiler
optimization.

This patch fixes it by saving the xen_pci_op command before
processing it. We also use 'barrier' to make sure that the
compiler does not perform any optimization.

This is part of XSA155.
