Hi Linus,

After I thought we were done for 5.4, we had a report this week of a nasty
issue that has been shown to leak data between different user address spaces
thanks to corruption of entries in the TLB. In hindsight, we should have
spotted this in review when the PAN code was merged back in v4.3, but
hindsight is 20/20 and I'm trying not to beat myself up too much about it
despite being fairly miserable.

Anyway, the fix is "obvious" but the actual failure is more more subtle,
and is described in the commit message. I've included a fairly mechanical
follow-up patch here as well, which moves this checking out into the C
wrappers which is what we do for {get,put}_user() already and allows us
to remove these bloody assembly macros entirely. The patches have passed
kernelci [1] [2] [3] and CKI [4] tests over night, as well as some
targetted testing [5] for this particular issue.

The first patch is tagged for stable and should be applied to 4.14, 4.19
and 5.3. I have separate backports for 4.4 and 4.9, which I'll send out
once this has landed in your tree (although the original patch applies
cleanly, it won't build for those two trees).

Thanks to Pavel Tatashin for reporting this and Mark Rutland for helping
to diagnose the issue and review/test the solution. Please pull.

Will
