[PATCHv2] arm64: Rework valid_user_regs

[PATCHv2] arm64: Rework valid_user_regs

[Mark Rutland]

We validate pstate using PSR_MODE32_BIT, which is part of the
user-provided pstate (and cannot be trusted). Also, we conflate
validation of AArch32 and AArch64 pstate values, making the code
difficult to reason about.

Instead, validate the pstate value based on the associated task. The
task may or may not be current (e.g. when using ptrace), so this must be
passed explicitly by callers. To avoid circular header dependencies via
sched.h, is_compat_task is pulled out of asm/ptrace.h.

To make the code possible to reason about, the AArch64 and AArch32
validation is split into separate functions. Software must respect the
RES0 policy for SPSR bits, and thus the kernel mirrors the hardware
policy (RAZ/WI) for bits as-yet unallocated. When these acquire an
architected meaning writes may be permitted (potentially with additional
validation).

Since v1 [1]
* Clear the full complement of RES0 bits
* Treat IL as RES0
* Treat SS as RES0 when not tracing

I think the consensus from the v1 review was to drop these PSR_[fsx] masks?

Yup. Mark, if you respin with that change then I can take this as a fix.
