Bug description:
  == SRU Justification ==
  This bug has been reported in multiple bugs and affects Trusty,
  Xenial and Bionic.  All releases need different backports, so T and X
  will be sent in separate SRU requests.

  Due to this bug in the original L1TF patch set, L1TF mitigation not
  effective in certain CPU and installed RAM configurations.

  == Fixes ==
  9df9516940a6 ("x86/speculation/l1tf: Fix overflow in l1tf_pfn_limit() on 32bit")
  b0a182f87568 ("x86/speculation/l1tf: Fix off-by-one error when warning that system has too much RAM")
  cc51e5428ea5 ("x86/speculation/l1tf: Increase l1tf memory limit for Nehalem+")

  == Regression Potential ==
  Low.  These are security fixes and have all been cc'd to upstream
  stable, so they have had additional upstream review.

  == Test Case ==
  A test kernel was built with these patches and tested by the original bug reporter.
  The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.

  Lenovo Thinkpad W530 system with 32 GB RAM

  dmesg | grep -i l1tf
