riscv: save the SR_SUM status over switches
[ Upstream commit 788aa64c01f1262310b4c1fb827a36df170d86ea ]
When threads/tasks are switched we need to ensure the old execution's
SR_SUM state is saved and the new thread has the old SR_SUM state
restored.
The issue was seen under heavy load especially with the syz-stress tool
running, with crashes as follows in schedule_tail:
Unable to handle kernel access to user memory without uaccess routines
at virtual address 000000002749f0d0

The issue comes from the put_user() in schedule_tail
(kernel/sched/core.c) doing the following:
asmlinkage __visible void schedule_tail(struct task_struct *prev)
{
...
if (current->set_child_tid)
put_user(task_pid_vnr(current), current->set_child_tid);
...
}
the put_user() macro causes the code sequence to come out as follows:
1: __enable_user_access()
2: reg = task_pid_vnr(current);
3: *current->set_child_tid = reg;
4: __disable_user_access()
The problem is that we may have a sleeping function as argument which
could clear SR_SUM causing the panic above. This was fixed by
evaluating the argument of the put_user() macro outside the user-enabled
section in commit 285a76b ("riscv: evaluate put_user() arg before
enabling user access")"
In order for riscv to take advantage of unsafe_get/put_XXX() macros and
to avoid the same issue we had with put_user() and sleeping functions we
must ensure code flow can go through switch_to() from within a region of
code with SR_SUM enabled and come back with SR_SUM still enabled. This
patch addresses the problem allowing future work to enable full use of
unsafe_get/put_XXX() macros without needing to take a CSR bit flip cost
on every access. Make switch_to() save and restore SR_SUM.
