Subject: [PATCH 5.4 27/68] enetc: Fix illegal access when reading affinity_hint

From: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@....com>

[ Upstream commit 7237a494decfa17d0b9d0076e6cee3235719de90 ]

irq_set_affinity_hit() stores a reference to the cpumask_t
parameter in the irq descriptor, and that reference can be
accessed later from irq_affinity_hint_proc_show(). Since
the cpu_mask parameter passed to irq_set_affinity_hit() has
only temporary storage (it's on the stack memory), later
accesses to it are illegal. Thus reads from the corresponding
procfs affinity_hint file can result in paging request oops.

The issue is fixed by the get_cpu_mask() helper, which provides
a permanent storage for the cpumask_t parameter.
