[ Upstream commit eb46d70e4455e49928f136f768f1e54646ab4ff7 ]

The state/owner of the FPU is saved to fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx by pointing
to the context that is currently loaded. It never changed during the
lifetime of a task - it remained stable/constant.

After deferred FPU registers loading until return to userland was
implemented, the content of fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx may change during
preemption and must not be cached.

This went unnoticed for some time and was now noticed, in particular
since gcc 9 is caching that load in copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() and
reusing it in the retry loop:

  copy_fpstate_to_sigframe()
    load fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx and save on stack
    fpregs_lock()
    copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() /* failed */
    fpregs_unlock()
         *** PREEMPTION, another uses FPU, changes fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx ***

    fault_in_pages_writeable() /* succeed, retry */

    fpregs_lock()
	__fpregs_load_activate()
	  fpregs_state_valid() /* uses fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx from stack */
    copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() /* succeeds, random FPU content */

This is a comparison of the assembly produced by gcc 9, without vs with this
patch:

Use this_cpu_read() instead this_cpu_read_stable() to avoid caching of
fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx during preemption points.

The Fixes: tag points to the commit where deferred FPU loading was
added. Since this commit, the compiler is no longer allowed to move the
load of fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx somewhere else / outside of the locked
section. A task preemption will change its value and stale content will
be observed.
