Sean Christopherson d2b2213dda KVM: Do not incorporate page offset into gfn=>pfn cache user address 
commit 3ba2c95ea1 upstream.

Don't adjust the userspace address in the gfn=>pfn cache by the page
offset from the gpa.  KVM should never use the user address directly, and
all KVM operations that translate a user address to something else
require the user address to be page aligned.  Ignoring the offset will
allow the cache to reuse a gfn=>hva translation in the unlikely event
that the page offset of the gpa changes, but the gfn does not.  And more
importantly, not having to (un)adjust the user address will simplify a
future bug fix.

README 

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.
