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.

+ * 'Generic' ticket-lock implementation.
+ *
+ * It relies on atomic_fetch_add() having well defined forward progress
+ * guarantees under contention. If your architecture cannot provide this, stick
+ * to a test-and-set lock.
+ *
+ * It also relies on atomic_fetch_add() being safe vs smp_store_release() on a
+ * sub-word of the value. This is generally true for anything LL/SC although
+ * you'd be hard pressed to find anything useful in architecture specifications
+ * about this. If your architecture cannot do this you might be better off with
+ * a test-and-set.
+ *
+ * It further assumes atomic_*_release() + atomic_*_acquire() is RCpc and hence
+ * uses atomic_fetch_add() which is RCsc to create an RCsc hot path, along with
+ * a full fence after the spin to upgrade the otherwise-RCpc
+ * atomic_cond_read_acquire().
+ *
+ * The implementation uses smp_cond_load_acquire() to spin, so if the
+ * architecture has WFE like instructions to sleep instead of poll for word
+ * modifications be sure to implement that (see ARM64 for example).
