x86/pv: Correct the auditing of guest breakpoint addresses
The use of access_ok() is buggy, because it permits access to the compat
translation area. 64bit PV guests don't use the XLAT area, but on AMD
hardware, the DBEXT feature allows a breakpoint to match up to a 4G aligned
region, allowing the breakpoint to reach outside of the XLAT area.
Prior to c/s
cda16c1bb223 ("x86: mirror compat argument translation area for
32-bit PV"), the live GDT was within 4G of the XLAT area.
All together, this allowed a malicious 64bit PV guest on AMD hardware to place
a breakpoint over the live GDT, and trigger a #DB livelock (CVE-2015-8104).
Introduce breakpoint_addr_ok() and explain why __addr_ok() happens to be an
appropriate check in this case.
For Xen 4.14 and later, this is a latent bug because the XLAT area has moved
to be on its own with nothing interesting adjacent. For Xen 4.13 and older on
AMD hardware, this fixes a PV-trigger-able DoS.
This is part of XSA-444 / CVE-2023-34328.
