[PATCH] powerpc/ptrace: Fix buffer overflow when handling PTRACE_PEEKUSER and PTRACE_POKEUSER

[Ariel Miculas]

This fixes the gdbserver issue on PPC32 described here:
Link: https://linuxppc-dev.ozlabs.narkive.com/C46DRek4/debug-problems-on-ppc-83xx-target-due-to-changed-struct-task-struct

On PPC32, the user space code considers the floating point to be an
array of unsigned int (32 bits) - the index passed in is based on
this assumption.

fp_state is a matrix consisting of 32 lines
/* FP and VSX 0-31 register set /
struct thread_fp_state {
u64 fpr[32][TS_FPRWIDTH] attribute((aligned(16)));
u64 fpscr; / Floating point status */
};

On PPC32, PT_FPSCR is defined as: (PT_FPR0 + 2*32 + 1)

This means the fpr index validation allows a range from 0 to 65, leading
to out-of-bounds array access. This ends up corrupting
threads_struct->state, which holds the state of the task. Thus, threads
incorrectly transition from a running state to a traced state and get
stuck in that state.

On PPC32 it's ok to assume that TS_FPRWIDTH is 1 because CONFIG_VSX is
PPC64 specific. TS_FPROFFSET can be safely ignored, thus the assumption
that fpr is an array of 32 elements of type u64 holds true.

Solution taken from arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace32.c
