[PATCH v4 05/10] x86, __get_user: use __uaccess_begin_nospec

[Dan Williams]

Quoting Linus:

    I do think that it would be a good idea to very expressly document
    the fact that it's not that the user access itself is unsafe. I do
    agree that things like "get_user()" want to be protected, but not
    because of any direct bugs or problems with get_user() and friends,
    but simply because get_user() is an excellent source of a pointer
    that is obviously controlled from a potentially attacking user
    space. So it's a prime candidate for then finding _subsequent_
    accesses that can then be used to perturb the cache.

'__uaccess_begin_nospec' covers '__get_user' and 'copy_from_iter' where
the limit check is far away from the user pointer de-reference. In those
cases an 'lfence' prevents speculation with a potential pointer to
privileged memory.
