Subject: [PATCH] x86: uaccess: fix regression in unsafe_get_user

From: Arthur Gautier <baloo@...di.net>

When extracting an initramfs, a filename may be near an allocation boundary.
Should that happen, strncopy_from_user will invoke unsafe_get_user which
may cross the allocation boundary. Should that happen, unsafe_get_user will
trigger a page fault, and strncopy_from_user would then bailout to
byte_at_a_time behavior.

unsafe_get_user is unsafe by nature, and rely on pagefault to detect boundaries.
After 9da3f2b74054 ("x86/fault: BUG() when uaccess helpers fault on kernel addresses")
it may no longer rely on pagefault as the new page fault handler would
trigger a BUG().

This commit allows unsafe_get_user to explicitly trigger pagefaults and
handle them directly with the error target label.

You may reproduce the issue with the following initrd:
  truncate -s 8388313 a
  SECONDFILENAME=bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
  truncate -s 10 $SECONDFILENAME
  echo "a\n$SECONDFILENAME" | cpio -o --format=newc | lz4 -l > initrd.img.lz4

This places the second filename in the cpio near the allocation boundary made
by lz4 decompression and should trigger the bug.
