From: Andy Lutomirski <[email protected]> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
=============== commit c29016cf41fe9fa994a5ecca607cf5f1cd98801e upstream. iopl(3) is supposed to work if iopl is already 3, even if unprivileged. This didn't work right on Xen PV. Fix it.
