[ Upstream commit 8ab49526b53d3172d1d8dd03a75c7d1f5bd21239 ]

syzbot found its way in 86_fsgsbase_read_task() and triggered this oops:

   KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]

This can happen if ptrace() or sigreturn() pokes an LDT selector into FS
or GS for a task with no LDT and something tries to read the base before
a return to usermode notices the bad selector and fixes it.

The fix is to make sure ldt pointer is not NULL.

<title>mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e31cf2f4ca422ac9b14ecc4a1295b8977a20f812</id>
<content type='text'>
Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address &gt;&gt; PMD_SHIFT) &amp; (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;
in the files that include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include &lt;asm\/pgtable.h&gt;/ d' $f
	done

asm/resctrl_sched.h is dedicated to the code used for configuration
of the CPU resource control state when a task is scheduled.

Rename resctrl_sched.h to resctrl.h in preparation of additions that
will no longer make this file dedicated to work done during scheduling.

No functional change.

<content type='text'>
force_iret() was originally intended to prevent the return to user mode with
the SYSRET or SYSEXIT instructions, in cases where the register state could
have been changed to be incompatible with those instructions.  The entry code
has been significantly reworked since then, and register state is validated
before SYSRET or SYSEXIT are used.  force_iret() no longer serves its original
purpose and can be eliminated.

While looking at the TSS io bitmap it turned out that any change in that
area would require identical changes to copy_thread_tls(). The 32 and 64
bit variants share sufficient code to consolidate them into a common
function to avoid duplication of upcoming modifications.

<title>x86/process: Delete useless check for dead process with LDT</title>

At release_thread(), -&gt;mm is NULL; and it is fine for the former mm to
still have an LDT. Delete this check in process_64.c, similar to
commit 2684927c6b93 ("[PATCH] x86: Deprecate useless bug"), which did the
same in process_32.c.

Pull x86 FPU state handling updates from Borislav Petkov:
 "This contains work started by Rik van Riel and brought to fruition by
  Sebastian Andrzej Siewior with the main goal to optimize when to load
  FPU registers: only when returning to userspace and not on every
  context switch (while the task remains in the kernel).

  In addition, this optimization makes kernel_fpu_begin() cheaper by
  requiring registers saving only on the first invocation and skipping
  that in following ones.

  What is more, this series cleans up and streamlines many aspects of
  the already complex FPU code, hopefully making it more palatable for
  future improvements and simplifications.

  Finally, there's a __user annotations fix from Jann Horn"
