Subject[PATCH 5.4 10/69] csky: dont let sigreturn play with priveleged bits of status register
Date
From: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

commit fbd63c08cdcca5fb1315aca3172b3c9c272cfb4f upstream.

csky restore_sigcontext() blindly overwrites regs->sr with the value
it finds in sigcontext. Attacker can store whatever they want in there,
which includes things like S-bit. Userland shouldn't be able to set
that, or anything other than C flag (bit 0).

Do the same thing other architectures with protected bits in flags
register do - preserve everything that shouldn't be settable in
user mode, picking the rest from the value saved is sigcontext.
