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.

+ * sram_exec_copy - copy data to a protected executable region of sram
+ *
+ * @pool: struct gen_pool retrieved that is part of this sram
+ * @dst: Destination address for the copy, that must be inside pool
+ * @src: Source address for the data to copy
+ * @size: Size of copy to perform, which starting from dst, must reside in pool
+ *
+ * Return: Address for copied data that can safely be called through function
+ *	   pointer, or NULL if problem.
+ *
+ * This helper function allows sram driver to act as central control location
+ * of 'protect-exec' pools which are normal sram pools but are always set
+ * read-only and executable except when copying data to them, at which point
+ * they are set to read-write non-executable, to make sure no memory is
+ * writeable and executable at the same time. This region must be page-aligned
+ * and is checked during probe, otherwise page attribute manipulation would
+ * not be possible. Care must be taken to only call the returned address as
+ * dst address is not guaranteed to be safely callable.
+ *
+ * NOTE: This function uses the fncpy macro to move code to the executable
+ * region. Some architectures have strict requirements for relocating
+ * executable code, so fncpy is a macro that must be defined by any arch
+ * making use of this functionality that guarantees a safe copy of exec
+ * data and returns a safe address that can be called as a C function
+ * pointer.
