[Qemu-devel] [PULL 1/3] xen/disk: don't leak stack data via response ring

[Stefano Stabellini]

Rather than constructing a local structure instance on the stack, fill
the fields directly on the shared ring, just like other (Linux)
backends do. Build on the fact that all response structure flavors are
actually identical (aside from alignment and padding at the end).

This is XSA-216.
