get_futex_key() does a check against sizeof(u32) regardless of futex being

So it is possible a 64bit futex spans two pages of memory...
That would be a user bug. 32-bit futexes have to be 32-bit aligned, 64-bit
futexes have to be 64-bit aligned.
I am not sure what you want to say.
User doing sys_futex64(0x......FFC, FUTEX_WAKE_OP, ...) and crashing kernel or
corrupting data is ok because its a user bug ?
User is allowed to do anything, kernel must check and protect innocents.
