[Xen-devel] [PATCH 4.15 036/122] x86/xen: Zero MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL before suspend

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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

------------------

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>

commit 71c208dd54ab971036d83ff6d9837bae4976e623 upstream.

Older Xen versions (4.5 and before) might have problems migrating pv
guests with MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL having a non-zero value. So before
suspending zero that MSR and restore it after being resumed.
