[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] x86/stackframe/32: repair 32-bit Xen PV



Once again RPL checks have been introduced which don't account for a
32-bit kernel living in ring 1 when running in a PV Xen domain. The
case in FIXUP_FRAME has been preventing boot; adjust BUG_IF_WRONG_CR3
as well just in case.

Fixes: 3c88c692c287 ("x86/stackframe/32: Provide consistent pt_regs")

v2: Avoid #ifdef and alter comment along the lines of Andy's suggestion.
