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.

+config NETFS_SUPPORT
+ tristate
+ help
+ This option enables support for network filesystems, including

+ segmentation, local caching and transparent huge page support.

+ help
+ This option causes statistical information to be gathered on local
+ caching and exported through file:
+
+ /proc/fs/fscache/stats
+
+ The gathering of statistics adds a certain amount of overhead to
+ execution as there are a quite a few stats gathered, and on a
+ multi-CPU system these may be on cachelines that keep bouncing
+ between CPUs. On the other hand, the stats are very useful for
+ debugging purposes. Saying 'Y' here is recommended.

+config NETFS_DEBUG
+ bool "Enable dynamic debugging netfslib and FS-Cache"
+ depends on NETFS_SUPPORT
+ help
+ This permits debugging to be dynamically enabled in the local caching
+ management module. If this is set, the debugging output may be
+ enabled by setting bits in /sys/module/netfs/parameters/debug.

+config FSCACHE
+ bool "General filesystem local caching manager"

+ help
+ This option enables a generic filesystem caching manager that can be
+ used by various network and other filesystems to cache data locally.
+ Different sorts of caches can be plugged in, depending on the
+ resources available.
