openrisc: fix arbitrary kernel memory access via or1k_atomic syscallgrafted
sys_or1k_atomic() (syscall 244 in the "or1k" ABI) takes two user pointers, v1 and v2, and swaps the words they point to in hand-written assembly. l.lwz r29,0(r4) l.lwz r27,0(r5) l.sw 0(r4),r27 l.sw 0(r5),r29 The pointers are not checked with access_ok(). The four memory accesses also have no exception table entries. A caller passes a kernel address as either pointer, and the syscall reads from and writes to it directly. This gives an unprivileged process a kernel read/write primitive. It overwrites kernel data such as the sys_call_table, gaining code execution in kernel context. Check both pointers before entering the critical section. Add fixups for the four memory accesses so faults on valid but unmapped user addresses return -EFAULT.

+=================
+PCI Test Function
+=================
+
+:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>
+
+Traditionally PCI RC has always been validated by using standard
+PCI cards like ethernet PCI cards or USB PCI cards or SATA PCI cards.
+However with the addition of EP-core in linux kernel, it is possible
+to configure a PCI controller that can operate in EP mode to work as
+a test device.
+
+The PCI endpoint test device is a virtual device (defined in software)
+used to test the endpoint functionality and serve as a sample driver
+for other PCI endpoint devices (to use the EP framework).
+
+The PCI endpoint test device has the following registers:
+
+ 1) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_MAGIC
+ 2) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_COMMAND
+ 3) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_STATUS
+ 4) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_SRC_ADDR
+ 5) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_DST_ADDR
+ 6) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_SIZE
+ 7) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_CHECKSUM
+ 8) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_IRQ_TYPE
+ 9) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_IRQ_NUMBER
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_MAGIC
+
+This register will be used to test BAR0. A known pattern will be written
+and read back from MAGIC register to verify BAR0.
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_COMMAND
+
+This register will be used by the host driver to indicate the function
+that the endpoint device must perform.
+
+======== ================================================================
+Bitfield Description
+======== ================================================================
+Bit 0 raise legacy IRQ
+Bit 1 raise MSI IRQ
+Bit 2 raise MSI-X IRQ
+Bit 3 read command (read data from RC buffer)
+Bit 4 write command (write data to RC buffer)
+Bit 5 copy command (copy data from one RC buffer to another RC buffer)
+======== ================================================================
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_STATUS
+
+This register reflects the status of the PCI endpoint device.
+
+======== ==============================
+Bitfield Description
+======== ==============================
+Bit 0 read success
+Bit 1 read fail
+Bit 2 write success
+Bit 3 write fail
+Bit 4 copy success
+Bit 5 copy fail
+Bit 6 IRQ raised
+Bit 7 source address is invalid
+Bit 8 destination address is invalid
+======== ==============================
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_SRC_ADDR
+
+This register contains the source address (RC buffer address) for the
+COPY/READ command.
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_DST_ADDR
+
+This register contains the destination address (RC buffer address) for
+the COPY/WRITE command.
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_IRQ_TYPE
+
+This register contains the interrupt type (Legacy/MSI) triggered
+for the READ/WRITE/COPY and raise IRQ (Legacy/MSI) commands.
+
+Possible types:
+
+====== ==
+Legacy 0
+MSI 1
+MSI-X 2
+====== ==
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_IRQ_NUMBER
+
+This register contains the triggered ID interrupt.
+
+Admissible values:
+
+====== ===========
+Legacy 0
+MSI [1 .. 32]
+MSI-X [1 .. 2048]
+====== ===========
