[PATCH v2 2/5] powerpc/spufs: don't leak kernel stack via spu_run

From: Junrui Luo <[email protected]>

do_spu_run() hands the address of an uninitialized local to
spufs_run_spu() and then copies it out unconditionally:

	u32 npc, status;
	...
	ret = spufs_run_spu(i->i_ctx, &npc, &status);
	...
	if (ustatus && put_user(status, ustatus))
		ret = -EFAULT;

spufs_run_spu() writes through that pointer at exactly one place, the
"out:" label, and two of its exits never reach it: the interruptible
acquisition of ctx->run_mutex returns -ERESTARTSYS directly, and a
failed spu_acquire() jumps to "out_unlock", which sits just after the
assignment.

Initialize status to 0, which is what userspace would have observed had
the assignment been reached anyway: spufs_run_spu() resets
ctx->event_return to 0 on entry, and 0 is the "no events pending" value
for this word.
