Laurent Dufour a3c4fb7c9c x86/mm: Fix fault error path using unsafe vma pointer
commit 7b2d0dbac4 ("x86/mm/pkeys: Pass VMA down in to fault signal
generation code") passes down a vma pointer to the error path, but that is
done once the mmap_sem is released when calling mm_fault_error() from
__do_page_fault().

This is dangerous as the vma structure is no more safe to be used once the
mmap_sem has been released. As only the protection key value is required in
the error processing, we could just pass down this value.

Fix it by passing a pointer to a protection key value down to the fault
signal generation code. The use of a pointer allows to keep the check
generating a warning message in fill_sig_info_pkey() when the vma was not
known. If the pointer is valid, the protection value can be accessed by
deferencing the pointer.

[ tglx: Made *pkey u32 as that's the type which is passed in siginfo ]

Fixes: 7b2d0dbac4 ("x86/mm/pkeys: Pass VMA down in to fault signal generation code")
