commit 82e61c3909db51d91b9d3e2071557b6435018b80 upstream.

Both read-side users of func_table/func_buf need locking. Without that,
one can easily confuse the code by repeatedly setting altering strings
like:
while (1)
        for (a = 0; a < 2; a++) {
                struct kbsentry kbs = {};
                strcpy((char *)kbs.kb_string, a ? ".\n" : "88888\n");
                ioctl(fd, KDSKBSENT, &kbs);
        }

When that program runs, one can get unexpected output by holding F1
(note the unxpected period on the last line):
.
88888
.8888

So protect all accesses to 'func_table' (and func_buf) by preexisting
'func_buf_lock'.

It is easy in 'k_fn' handler as 'puts_queue' is expected not to sleep.
On the other hand, KDGKBSENT needs a local (atomic) copy of the string
because copy_to_user can sleep. Use already allocated, but unused
'kbs->kb_string' for that purpose.

Note that the program above needs at least CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG.

This depends on the previous patch and on the func_buf_lock lock added
in commit 46ca3f735f34 (tty/vt: fix write/write race in ioctl(KDSKBSENT)
handler) in 5.2.

Likely fixes CVE-2020-25656.
