[PATCH 4.16 076/161] usb: gadget: ffs: Execute copy_to_user() with USER_DS set

4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4058ebf33cb0be88ca516f968eda24ab7b6b93e4 ]

When using a AIO read() operation on the function FS gadget driver a URB is
submitted asynchronously and on URB completion the received data is copied
to the userspace buffer associated with the read operation.

This is done from a kernel worker thread invoking copy_to_user() (through
copy_to_iter()). And while the user space process memory is made available
to the kernel thread using use_mm(), some architecture require in addition
to this that the operation runs with USER_DS set. Otherwise the userspace
memory access will fail.

For example on ARM64 with Privileged Access Never (PAN) and User Access
Override (UAO) enabled the following crash occurs.

Internal error: Accessing user space memory with fs=KERNEL_DS: 9600004f [#1] SMP

Address this by placing a set_fs(USER_DS) before of the copy operation
and revert it again once the copy operation has finished.

This patch is analogous to commit d7ffde35e31a ("vhost: use USER_DS in
vhost_worker thread") which addresses the same underlying issue.
