Subject: [PATCH 3.16 75/76] x86/uaccess: Use __uaccess_begin_nospec() and
 uaccess_try_nospec

3.16.56-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>

commit 304ec1b050310548db33063e567123fae8fd0301 upstream.

Quoting Linus:

    I do think that it would be a good idea to very expressly document
    the fact that it's not that the user access itself is unsafe. I do
    agree that things like "get_user()" want to be protected, but not
    because of any direct bugs or problems with get_user() and friends,
    but simply because get_user() is an excellent source of a pointer
    that is obviously controlled from a potentially attacking user
    space. So it's a prime candidate for then finding _subsequent_
    accesses that can then be used to perturb the cache.

__uaccess_begin_nospec() covers __get_user() and copy_from_iter() where the
limit check is far away from the user pointer de-reference. In those cases
a barrier_nospec() prevents speculation with a potential pointer to
privileged memory. uaccess_try_nospec covers get_user_try.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - Convert several more functions to use __uaccess_begin_nospec(), that
   are just wrappers in mainline
 - There's no 'case 8' in __copy_to_user_inatomic()
 - Adjust context]
