Merge PTRACE_SETREGSET leakage fixes from Dave Martin:
 "This series is the collection of fixes I proposed on this topic, that
  have not yet appeared upstream or in the stable branches,

  The issue can leak kernel stack, but doesn't appear to allow userspace
  to attack the kernel directly.  The affected architectures are c6x,
  h8300, metag, mips and sparc.

  [ Mark Salter points out that c6x has no MMU or other mechanism to
    prevent userspace access to kernel code or data on c6x, but it
    doesn't hurt to clean that case up too. ]

  The bugs arise from use of user_regset_copyin(). Users of
  user_regset_copyin() can work in one of two ways:

   1) Copy directly to thread_struct or equivalent. (This seems to be
      the design assumption of the regset API, and is the most common
      approach.)

   2) Copy to a local variable and then transfer to thread_struct. (A
      significant minority of cases.)

  Buggy code typically involves approach 2"

* emailed patches from Dave Martin &lt;Dave.Martin@arm.com&gt;:
  sparc/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write
  mips/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write
  metag/ptrace: Reject partial NT_METAG_RPIPE writes
  metag/ptrace: Provide default TXSTATUS for short NT_PRSTATUS
  metag/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write
  h8300/ptrace: Fix incorrect register transfer count
  c6x/ptrace: Remove useless PTRACE_SETREGSET implementation

regs_set() and regs_get() are vulnerable to an off-by-1 buffer overrun
if CONFIG_CPU_H8S is set, since this adds an extra entry to
register_offset[] but not to user_regs_struct.

So, iterate over user_regs_struct based on its actual size, not based on
the length of register_offset[].

Update code that relied on sched.h including various MM types for them.

This will allow us to remove the &lt;linux/mm_types.h&gt; include from &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;.

We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Most dma_map_ops structures are never modified. Constify these
structures such that these can be write-protected. This patch
has been generated as follows:

  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include &lt;linux/uaccess.h&gt;!" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.
