Greg Kurz 57b47abc1a vhost: Don't call access_ok() when using IOTLB
commit 0210a8db2a upstream.

When the IOTLB device is enabled, the vring addresses we get
from userspace are GIOVAs. It is thus wrong to pass them down
to access_ok() which only takes HVAs.

Access validation is done at prefetch time with IOTLB. Teach
vq_access_ok() about that by moving the (vq->iotlb) check
from vhost_vq_access_ok() to vq_access_ok(). This prevents
vhost_vring_set_addr() to fail when verifying the accesses.
No behavior change for vhost_vq_access_ok().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
