[PATCH for-4.19] xen: re-add type checking to {,__}copy_from_guest_offset()
Posted by Jan Beulich 2 months, 2 weeks ago
When re-working them to avoid UB on guest address calculations, I failed
to add explicit type checks in exchange for the implicit ones that until
then had happened in assignments that were there anyway.

Fixes: 43d5c5d5f70b ("xen: avoid UB in guest handle arithmetic")
