Is there a reason we're using TASK_SIZE_MAX?
It's copy from *kernel* (nofault) allowed, so shouldn't we be checking
that the address plausibly points at kernel memory? Not at no-man's land
above TASK_SIZE_MAX but below the start of kernel memory?
We have is_kernel_addr() which already encapsulates some platform quirks
around that logic, it seems like it would be a better fit?
ie:
bool copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed(const void *unsafe_src, size_t size)
{
return is_kernel_addr((unsigned long)unsafe_src);
}
cheers
