CVE-2021-47006: ARM: 9064/1: hw_breakpoint: Do not directly check the event's overflow_handler hook

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: gregkh@kernel.org

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ARM: 9064/1: hw_breakpoint: Do not directly check the event's overflow_handler hook

The commit 1879445dfa7b ("perf/core: Set event's default
::overflow_handler()") set a default event->overflow_handler in
perf_event_alloc(), and replace the check event->overflow_handler with
is_default_overflow_handler(), but one is missing.

Currently, the bp->overflow_handler can not be NULL. As a result,
enable_single_step() is always not invoked.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
