5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 78aafb3884f6bc6636efcc1760c891c8500b9922 upstream. There is a dead-lock in the hwrng device read path. This triggers when the user reads from /dev/hwrng into memory also mmap-ed from /dev/hwrng. The resulting page fault triggers a recursive read which then dead-locks. Fix this by using a stack buffer when calling copy_to_user.
