Message-ID: <20190421142037.21881-31-mpe at ellerman.id.au>

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe at ellerman.id.au>

commit ddf35cf3764b5a182b178105f57515b42e2634f8 upstream.

Based on the x86 commit doing the same.

See commit 304ec1b05031 ("x86/uaccess: Use __uaccess_begin_nospec()
and uaccess_try_nospec") and b3bbfb3fb5d2 ("x86: Introduce
__uaccess_begin_nospec() and uaccess_try_nospec") for more detail.

In all cases we are ordering the load from the potentially
user-controlled pointer vs a previous branch based on an access_ok()
check or similar.

Base on a patch from Michal Suchanek.
