Sebastian Andrzej Siewior bbc55341b9 x86/fpu: Deactivate FPU state after failure during state load
In __fpu__restore_sig(), fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx needs to be reset if the
FPU state was not fully restored. Otherwise the following may happen (on
the same CPU):

  Task A                     Task B               fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx
  *active*                                        A.fpu
  __fpu__restore_sig()
                             ctx switch           load B.fpu
                             *active*             B.fpu
  fpregs_lock()
  copy_user_to_fpregs_zeroing()
    copy_kernel_to_xregs() *modify*
    copy_user_to_xregs() *fails*
  fpregs_unlock()
                            ctx switch            skip loading B.fpu,
                            *active*              B.fpu

In the success case, fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx is set to the current task.

In the failure case, the FPU state might have been modified by loading
the init state.

In this case, fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx needs to be reset in order to ensure
that the FPU state of the following task is loaded from saved state (and
not skipped because it was the previous state).

Reset fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx after a failure during restore occurred, to
ensure that the FPU state for the next task is always loaded.

The problem was debugged-by Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@intel.com>.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
