Subject: [PATCH 3/3] arm64/syscalls: Move address limit check in loop
The original bug was reported on arm but I am fixing arm64 too because
it has a similar code pattern.
The work pending loop can call set_fs after addr_limit_user_check
removed the _TIF_FSCHECK flag. To prevent the infinite loop, move the
addr_limit_user_check call at the beginning of the loop.
Fixes: cf7de27ab351 ("arm64/syscalls: Check address limit on user-mode return")
