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.

+ The Fast File System (FFS) is the common file system used on hard
+ disks by Amiga(tm) systems since AmigaOS Version 1.3 (34.20). Say Y
+ if you want to be able to read and write files from and to an Amiga
+ FFS partition on your hard drive. Amiga floppies however cannot be
+ read with this driver due to an incompatibility of the floppy
+ controller used in an Amiga and the standard floppy controller in
+ PCs and workstations. Read <file:Documentation/filesystems/affs.rst>
+ and <file:fs/affs/Changes>.
+
+ With this driver you can also mount disk files used by Bernd
+ Schmidt's Un*X Amiga Emulator
+ (<http://www.freiburg.linux.de/~uae/>).
+ If you want to do this, you will also need to say Y or M to "Loop
+ device support", above.
+
+ To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called affs. If unsure, say N.
