4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>
commit e88d62cd4b2f0b1ae55e9008e79c2794b1fc914d upstream.
As raw_cpu_generic_read() is a plain read from a raw_cpu_ptr() address, it's possible (albeit unlikely) that the compiler will split the access across multiple instructions.
In this_cpu_generic_read() we disable preemption but not interrupts before calling raw_cpu_generic_read(). Thus, an interrupt could be taken in the middle of the split load instructions. If a this_cpu_write() or RMW this_cpu_*() op is made to the same variable in the interrupt handling path, this_cpu_read() will return a torn value.
For native word types, we can avoid tearing using READ_ONCE(), but this won't work in all cases (e.g. 64-bit types on most 32-bit platforms). This patch reworks this_cpu_generic_read() to use READ_ONCE() where possible, otherwise falling back to disabling interrupts.
