File CVE-2018-7550-qemuu-multiboot-OOB-access-while-loading-kernel-image.patch of Package xen.7316

While loading kernel via multiboot-v1 image, (flags & 0x00010000)
indicates that multiboot header contains valid addresses to load
the kernel image. In that, end of the data segment address
'mh_load_end_addr' should be less than the bss segment address
'mh_bss_end_addr'. Add check to validate that.
