Subject: s390/ptrace: fix PSW mask check
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit dab6cf55f81a6e16b8147aed9a843e1691dcd318 upstream.
The PSW mask check of the PTRACE_POKEUSR_AREA command is incorrect.
The PSW_MASK_USER define contains the PSW_MASK_ASC bits, the ptrace
interface accepts all combinations for the address-space-control
bits. To protect the kernel space the PSW mask check in ptrace needs
to reject the address-space-control bit combination for home space.
Fixes CVE-2014-3534
