[PATCH 5.10.y v2] mips: sched: Fix CPUMASK_OFFSTACK memory corruption

Aaron Tomlin <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.stable
Message-ID <[email protected]>
This patch addresses a critical memory management flaw. When
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is enabled, cpumask_var_t is a pointer.
Consequently, sizeof(new_mask) evaluates to the pointer size, causing
copy_from_user() to clobber the mask pointer. Furthermore, the old
logic performed copy_from_user() before allocating the mask.

Fix this by allocating new_mask first. To handle variable-sized user
masks correctly, use cpumask_size() to truncate overly large user masks
or pad undersized masks with zeros before copying the data directly into
the allocated buffer.

Fixes: 295cbf6d63165 ("[MIPS] Move FPU affinity code into separate file.")

Changes since v1:

 - Fixed the !p error path to set retval = -ESRCH and jump to
   out_free_new_mask so new_mask is properly freed on failure (Sasha Levin)

 - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/stable/[email protected]/
