Subject: s390/ptrace: fix PSW mask check

From: Martin Schwidefsky <[email protected]>

commit dab6cf55f81a6e16b8147aed9a843e1691dcd318 upstream.

The PSW mask check of the PTRACE_POKEUSR_AREA command is incorrect.
The PSW_MASK_USER define contains the PSW_MASK_ASC bits, the ptrace
interface accepts all combinations for the address-space-control
bits. To protect the kernel space the PSW mask check in ptrace needs
to reject the address-space-control bit combination for home space.

Fixes CVE-2014-3534

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - The PSW user-settable bitmasks are constant, never including PSW_MASK_RI
 - The kernel can run in either home or primary space, so instead of
   checking that the ASC bits are not equal to PSW_ASC_HOME, we have to
   check that they don't match psw_kernel_bits
 - For the same reason, the required values of non-user-settable bits
   are variables (psw_user_bits/psw32_user_bits) and remain so]
