Thomas Gleixner 159e2db6cb rseq: Protect event mask against membarrier IPI
commit 6eb350a223 upstream.

rseq_need_restart() reads and clears task::rseq_event_mask with preemption
disabled to guard against the scheduler.

But membarrier() uses an IPI and sets the PREEMPT bit in the event mask
from the IPI, which leaves that RMW operation unprotected.

Use guard(irq) if CONFIG_MEMBARRIER is enabled to fix that.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
