Bug description:
  The __switch_to function in arch/x86/kernel/process_64.c in the Linux
  kernel through 3.18.1 does not ensure that Thread Local Storage (TLS)
  descriptors are loaded before proceeding with other steps, which makes
  it easier for local users to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via
  a crafted application that reads a TLS base address.

  Break-Fix: - f647d7c155f069c1a068030255c300663516420e
