At the point where setup_return() is called, the signal frame has already been written to the user stack. In other words, we write to the user stack first, and then reset POR_EL0. This may be problematic, especially if we are using the alternate signal stack, which the interrupted POR_EL0 may not grant access to. In that situation uaccess will fail and we'll end up with a SIGSEGV. This issue has already been discussed on the x86 side, and as it happens patches to reset PKRU early [1] have just landed. I don't think this is a blocker for getting this series landed, but we should try and align with x86. If there's no objection, I'm planning to work on a counterpart to the x86 series (resetting POR_EL0 early during signal delivery).
