CVE-2021-46997— arm64: entry: always set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET during entry

arm64: entry: always set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET during entry

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: entry: always set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET during entry Zenghui reports that booting a kernel with "irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1" on the command line hits a warning during kernel entry, due to the way we manipulate the PMR. Early in the entry sequence, we call lockdep_hardirqs_off() to inform lockdep that interrupts have been masked (as the HW sets DAIF wqhen entering an exception). Architecturally PMR_EL1 is not affected by exception entry, and we don't set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET in the PMR early in the exception entry sequence, so early in exception entry the PMR can indicate that interrupts are unmasked even though they are masked by DAIF. If DEBUG_LOCKDEP is selected, lockdep_hardirqs_off() will check that interrupts are masked, before we set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET in any of the exception entry paths, and hence lockdep_hardirqs_off() will WARN() that something is amiss. We can avoid this by consistently setting GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET during exception entry so that kernel code sees a consistent environment. We must also update local_daif_inherit() to undo this, as currently only touches DAIF. For other paths, local_daif_restore() will update both DAIF and the PMR. With this done, we can remove the existing special cases which set this later in the entry code. We always use (GIC_PRIO_IRQON | GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET) for consistency with local_daif_save(), as this will warn if it ever encounters (GIC_PRIO_IRQOFF | GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET), and never sets this itself. This matches the gic_prio_kentry_setup that we have to retain for ret_to_user.
