arm64: traps: fix userspace cache maintenance emulation on a tagged pointer
commit 81cddd65 upstream. This backport has a minor difference from the upstream commit, as v4.9 did not yet have the refactoring done by commit 8b6e70fc ("arm64: traps: correctly handle MRS/MSR with XZR"). Original patch description: When we emulate userspace cache maintenance in the kernel, we can currently send the task a SIGSEGV even though the maintenance was done on a valid address. This happens if the address has a non-zero address tag, and happens to not be mapped in. When we get the address from a user register, we don't currently remove the address tag before performing cache maintenance on it. If the maintenance faults, we end up in either __do_page_fault, where find_vma can't find the VMA if the address has a tag, or in do_translation_fault, where the tagged address will appear to be above TASK_SIZE. In both cases, the address is not mapped in, and the task is sent a SIGSEGV. This patch removes the tag from the address before using it. With this patch, the fault is handled correctly, the address gets mapped in, and the cache maintenance succeeds. As a second bug, if cache maintenance (correctly) fails on an invalid tagged address, the address gets passed into arm64_notify_segfault, where find_vma fails to find the VMA due to the tag, and the wrong si_code may be sent as part of the siginfo_t of the segfault. With this patch, the correct si_code is sent.
