File xsa348.patch of Package xen.25143
x86: avoid calling {svm,vmx}_do_resume()
These functions follow the following path: hvm_do_resume() ->
handle_hvm_io_completion() -> hvm_wait_for_io() ->
wait_on_xen_event_channel() -> do_softirq() -> schedule() ->
sched_context_switch() -> continue_running() and hence may
recursively invoke themselves. If this ends up happening a couple of
times, a stack overflow would result.
Prevent this by also resetting the stack at the
->arch.ctxt_switch->tail() invocations (in both places for consistency)
and thus jumping to the functions instead of calling them.
This is XSA-348 / CVE-2020-29566.
