-From: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>
-Subject: x86/traps: Fix %dr6 handing in #DB handler
-
-Most bits in %dr6 accumulate, rather than being set directly based on the
-current source of #DB. Have the handler follow the manuals guidance, which
-avoids leaking hypervisor debugging activities into guest context.
-
-This is part of XSA-260 / CVE-2018-8897.
