3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ 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.
