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.

+Device Frequency Scaling
+========================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+This framework provides a standard kernel interface for Dynamic Voltage and
+Frequency Switching on arbitrary devices.
+
+It exposes controls for adjusting frequency through sysfs files which are
+similar to the cpufreq subsystem.
+
+Devices for which current usage can be measured can have their frequency
+automatically adjusted by governors.
+
+API
+---
+
+Device drivers need to initialize a :c:type:`devfreq_profile` and call the
+:c:func:`devfreq_add_device` function to create a :c:type:`devfreq` instance.
