that is, nft_pipapo_avx2_lookup() uses the FPU running from a softirq
that interrupted a kthread, also using the FPU.

That's exactly the reason why irq_fpu_usable() is there: use it, and
if we can't use the FPU, fall back to the non-AVX2 version of the
lookup operation, i.e. nft_pipapo_lookup().

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47174 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
