4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
commit a0e6e0831c516860fc7f9be1db6c081fe902ebcf upstream
modify_ldt(2) leaves the old LDT mapped after switching over to the new one. The old LDT gets freed and the pages can be re-used.
Leaving the mapping in place can have security implications. The mapping is present in the userspace page tables and Meltdown-like attacks can read these freed and possibly reused pages.
It's relatively simple to fix: unmap the old LDT and flush TLB before freeing the old LDT memory.
This further allows to avoid flushing the TLB in map_ldt_struct() as the slot is unmapped and flushed by unmap_ldt_struct() or has never been mapped at all.
[ tglx: Massaged changelog and removed the needless line breaks ]
