[PATCH] powerpc/uaccess: Perform barrier_nospec() in KUAP allowance helpers

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Sun Feb 07 2021 - 05:09:52 EST


barrier_nospec() in uaccess helpers is there to protect against
speculative accesses around access_ok().

When using user_access_begin() sequences together with
unsafe_get_user() like macros, barrier_nospec() is called for
every single read although we know the access_ok() is done
onece.

Since all user accesses must be granted by a call to either
allow_read_from_user() or allow_read_write_user() which will
always happen after the access_ok() check, move the barrier_nospec()
there.
