Commit 851a723e45d1 ("sched: Always clear user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed()") may call kfree() if user_cpus_ptr was previously
set. Unfortunately, some of the callers of do_set_cpus_allowed()
may have pi_lock held when calling it. So the following splats may be
printed especially when running with a PREEMPT_RT kernel:

   WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
   BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context

To avoid these problems, kfree_rcu() is used instead. An internal
cpumask_rcuhead union is created for the sole purpose of facilitating
the use of kfree_rcu() to free the cpumask.

Since user_cpus_ptr is not being used in non-SMP configs, the newly
introduced alloc_user_cpus_ptr() helper will return NULL in this case
and sched_setaffinity() is modified to handle this special case.

<title>sched/core: Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr()</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit 07ec77a1d4e8 ("sched: Allow task CPU affinity to be
restricted on asymmetric systems"), the setting and clearing of
user_cpus_ptr are done under pi_lock for arm64 architecture. However,
dup_user_cpus_ptr() accesses user_cpus_ptr without any lock
protection. Since sched_setaffinity() can be invoked from another
process, the process being modified may be undergoing fork() at
the same time.  When racing with the clearing of user_cpus_ptr in
__set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked(), it can lead to user-after-free and
possibly double-free in arm64 kernel.

Commit 8f9ea86fdf99 ("sched: Always preserve the user requested
cpumask") fixes this problem as user_cpus_ptr, once set, will never
be cleared in a task's lifetime. However, this bug was re-introduced
in commit 851a723e45d1 ("sched: Always clear user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed()") which allows the clearing of user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed(). This time, it will affect all arches.

Fix this bug by always clearing the user_cpus_ptr of the newly
cloned/forked task before the copying process starts and check the
user_cpus_ptr state of the source task under pi_lock.

Note to stable, this patch won't be applicable to stable releases.
Just copy the new dup_user_cpus_ptr() function over.

<title>sched/core: Fix arch_scale_freq_tick() on tickless systems</title>

In order for the scheduler to be frequency invariant we measure the
ratio between the maximum CPU frequency and the actual CPU frequency.

During long tickless periods of time the calculations that keep track
of that might overflow, in the function scale_freq_tick():

  if (check_shl_overflow(acnt, 2*SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT, &amp;acnt))
          goto error;

eventually forcing the kernel to disable the feature for all CPUs,
and show the warning message:

   "Scheduler frequency invariance went wobbly, disabling!".

Let's avoid that by limiting the frequency invariant calculations
to CPUs with regular tick.

Pull kernel hardening updates from Kees Cook:

 - Convert flexible array members, fix -Wstringop-overflow warnings, and
   fix KCFI function type mismatches that went ignored by maintainers
   (Gustavo A. R. Silva, Nathan Chancellor, Kees Cook)

 - Remove the remaining side-effect users of ksize() by converting
   dma-buf, btrfs, and coredump to using kmalloc_size_roundup(), add
   more __alloc_size attributes, and introduce full testing of all
   allocator functions. Finally remove the ksize() side-effect so that
   each allocation-aware checker can finally behave without exceptions

 - Introduce oops_limit (default 10,000) and warn_limit (default off) to
   provide greater granularity of control for panic_on_oops and
   panic_on_warn (Jann Horn, Kees Cook)

 - Introduce overflows_type() and castable_to_type() helpers for cleaner
   overflow checking

 - Improve code generation for strscpy() and update str*() kern-doc

 - Convert strscpy and sigphash tests to KUnit, and expand memcpy tests

 - Always use a non-NULL argument for prepare_kernel_cred()

 - Disable structleak plugin in FORTIFY KUnit test (Anders Roxell)

 - Adjust orphan linker section checking to respect CONFIG_WERROR (Xin
   Li)

 - Make sure siginfo is cleared for forced SIGKILL (haifeng.xu)

 - Fix um vs FORTIFY warnings for always-NULL arguments

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Implement persistent user-requested affinity: introduce
   affinity_context::user_mask and unconditionally preserve the
   user-requested CPU affinity masks, for long-lived tasks to better
   interact with cpusets &amp; CPU hotplug events over longer timespans,
   without destroying the original affinity intent if the underlying
   topology changes.

 - Uclamp updates: fix relationship between uclamp and fits_capacity()

 - PSI fixes

 - Misc fixes &amp; updates

Several run-time checkers (KASAN, UBSAN, KFENCE, KCSAN, sched) roll
their own warnings, and each check "panic_on_warn". Consolidate this
into a single function so that future instrumentation can be added in
a single location.

This reverts commit 6d5afdc97ea71958287364a1f1d07e59ef151b11.

On a Pixel 6 device, it is observed that this commit increases
latency by approximately 50ms, or 20%, in migrating a task
that requires full CPU utilization from a LITTLE CPU to Fmax
on a big CPU. Reverting this change restores the latency back
to its original baseline value.
