The following two patches fix CVE-2013-1943 for Lucid.

The first one is a backport of fa3d315 ("KVM: Validate userspace_addr
of memslot when registered").  It basically drops the changes to
walk_addr as kvm_read_guest() will actually __copy_from_user() instead
of copy_from_user().

The second patch is a clean cherry-pick of 9e3bb6b ("KVM: add missing
void __user * cast to access_ok() call").

Heiko Carstens (1):
  KVM: add missing void __user * cast to access_ok() call

Takuya Yoshikawa (1):
  KVM: Validate userspace_addr of memslot when registered
