Mark Brown ae836b7f6c arm64/ptrace: Don't flush ZA/ZT storage when writing ZA via ptrace 
[ Upstream commit b7c510d049 ]

When writing ZA we currently unconditionally flush the buffer used to store
it as part of ensuring that it is allocated. Since this buffer is shared
with ZT0 this means that a write to ZA when PSTATE.ZA is already set will
corrupt the value of ZT0 on a SME2 system. Fix this by only flushing the
backing storage if PSTATE.ZA was not previously set.

This will mean that short or failed writes may leave stale data in the
buffer, this seems as correct as our current behaviour and unlikely to be
something that userspace will rely on.

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 Restructured Text 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.
