[PATCH 4.14 082/119] arm64: Force SSBS on context switch

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Oct 27 2019 - 17:34:42 EST


From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit cbdf8a189a66001c36007bf0f5c975d0376c5c3a ]

On a CPU that doesn't support SSBS, PSTATE[12] is RES0. In a system
where only some of the CPUs implement SSBS, we end-up losing track of
the SSBS bit across task migration.

To address this issue, let's force the SSBS bit on context switch.

Fixes: 8f04e8e6e29c ("arm64: ssbd: Add support for PSTATE.SSBS rather than trapping to EL3")
