4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx> commit 7209c868600bd8926e37c10b9aae83124ccc1dd8 upstream. Commit 338d4f49d6f7 ("arm64: kernel: Add support for Privileged Access Never") enabled PAN by enabling the 'SPAN' feature-bit in SCTLR_EL1. This means the PSTATE.PAN bit won't be set until the next return to the kernel from userspace. On a preemptible kernel we may schedule work that accesses userspace on a CPU before it has done this. Now that cpufeature enable() calls are scheduled via stop_machine(), we can set PSTATE.PAN from the cpu_enable_pan() call. Add WARN_ON_ONCE(in_interrupt()) to check the PSTATE value we updated is not immediately discarded.
