commit e137a4d8f4dd2e277e355495b6b2cb241a8693c3 upstream.

Switching FS and GS is a mess, and the current code is still subtly
wrong: it assumes that "Loading a nonzero value into FS sets the
index and base", which is false on AMD CPUs if the value being
loaded is 1, 2, or 3.

(The current code came from commit 3e2b68d752c9 ("x86/asm,
sched/x86: Rewrite the FS and GS context switch code"), which made
it better but didn't fully fix it.)

Rewrite it to be much simpler and more obviously correct.  This
should fix it fully on AMD CPUs and shouldn't adversely affect
performance.

commit 767d035d838f4fd6b5a5bbd7a3f6d293b7f65a49 upstream.

execve used to leak FSBASE and GSBASE on AMD CPUs.  Fix it.

The security impact of this bug is small but not quite zero -- it
could weaken ASLR when a privileged task execs a less privileged
program, but only if program changed bitness across the exec, or the
child binary was highly unusual or actively malicious.  A child
program that was compromised after the exec would not have access to
the leaked base.

The prctl code which references vdso_image_x32 is built when CONFIG_X86_X32
is set. This results in the following build failure:

  LD      init/built-in.o
arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `do_arch_prctl':
(.text+0x27466): undefined reference to `vdso_image_x32'

vdso_image_x32 depends on CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI. So we need to make the prctl
depend on that as well.

Because sched.h and thread_info.h are a tangled mess, I turned
in_compat_syscall() into a macro.  If we had current_thread_struct()
or similar and we could use it from thread_info.h, then this would
be a bit cleaner.

Add API to change vdso blob type with arch_prctl.
As this is usefull only by needs of CRIU, expose
this interface under CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.

<title>x86/mm/pkeys: Do not skip PKRU register if debug registers are not used</title>

__show_regs() fails to dump the PKRU state when the debug registers are in
their default state because there is a return statement on the debug
register state.

Change the logic to report PKRU value even when debug registers are in
their default state.

Instead of setting up a fake pt_regs context, put the kernel thread
function pointer and arg into the unused callee-restored registers
of 'struct fork_frame'.
