Alpine: xen: security update to 4.15.3-r2

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 407819

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- insufficient TLB flush for x86 PV guests in shadow mode For migration as well as to work around kernels
unaware of L1TF (see XSA-273), PV guests may be run in shadow paging mode. To address XSA-401, code was
moved inside a function in Xen. This code movement missed a variable changing meaning / value between old
and new code positions. The now wrong use of the variable did lead to a wrong TLB flush condition,
omitting flushes where such are necessary. (CVE-2022-33745)
