ARM: 9485/1: mm: acquire mmap write lock around show_pte() for user faultsgrafted

When CONFIG_DEBUG_USER=y, and cmdline "user_debug=31" is set,
a user fault may trigger show_pte() without any lock.
If another thread in the same process concurrently calls munmap(),
the page table pages may be freed while show_pte() is still traversing
them, causing a use-after-free in show_pte().

If CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y, this may cause a kernel panic if the pages table
of PMD are freed when show_pte() is running.

Acquire mmap_write_lock() around show_pte() for user faults to fix the
contention.

For user faults, additionally restrict that show_pte() is called only
when the addr is a user-space address (addr < TASK_SIZE). This is because
the lock of tsk->mm only protects the virtual memory of user address space,
furthermore, dumping the page tables of a kernel-space address for user
faults is unnecessary and may have security implications.

Keep everything unchanged for kernel faults, because the kernel is
already in the "oops" state, acquiring a lock may risk a deadlock.

+What:		/sys/class/leds/<led>/pattern
+Date:		September 2018
+KernelVersion:	4.20
+Description:
+		Specify a software pattern for the LED, that supports altering
+		the brightness for the specified duration with one software
+		timer. It can do gradual dimming and step change of brightness.
+
+		The pattern is given by a series of tuples, of brightness and
+		duration (ms).
+
+		The exact format is described in:
+		Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/leds-trigger-pattern.txt

+What:		/sys/class/leds/<led>/hr_pattern
+Date:		April 2024
+Description:
+		Specify a software pattern for the LED, that supports altering
+		the brightness for the specified duration with one software
+		timer. It can do gradual dimming and step change of brightness.
+
+		Unlike the /sys/class/leds/<led>/pattern, this attribute runs
+		a pattern on high-resolution timer (hrtimer).
+
+What:		/sys/class/leds/<led>/hw_pattern
+Date:		September 2018
+KernelVersion:	4.20
+Description:
+		Specify a hardware pattern for the LED, for LED hardware that
+		supports autonomously controlling brightness over time, according
+		to some preprogrammed hardware patterns. It deactivates any active
+		software pattern.
+
+		Since different LED hardware can have different semantics of
+		hardware patterns, each driver is expected to provide its own
+		description for the hardware patterns in their documentation
+		file at Documentation/leds/.
+
+What:		/sys/class/leds/<led>/repeat
+Date:		September 2018
+KernelVersion:	4.20
+Description:
+		Specify a pattern repeat number. -1 means repeat indefinitely,
+		other negative numbers and number 0 are invalid.
+
+		This file will always return the originally written repeat
+		number.
+
+		It should be noticed that some leds, like EL15203000 may
+		only support indefinitely patterns, so they always store -1.
