  parisc: Revise __get_user() to probe user read access (2025-07-25 22:45:24 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
parisc architecture fixes for kernel v6.17-rc1:

The parisc kernel wrongly allows reading from read-protected userspace
memory without faulting, e.g. when userspace uses mprotect() to
read-protect a memory area and then uses a pointer to this memory in a
write(2, addr, 1) syscall.  To fix this issue, Dave Anglin developed a
set of patches which use the proberi assembler instruction to
additionally check read access permissions at runtime.

Randy Dunlap contributed two patches to fix a minor typo and to explain
why a 32-bit compiler is needed although a 64-bit kernel is built.

----------------------------------------------------------------
John David Anglin (8):
      parisc: Update comments in make_insert_tlb
      parisc: Check region is readable by user in raw_copy_from_user()
      parisc: Rename pte_needs_flush() to pte_needs_cache_flush() in cache.c
      parisc: Define and use set_pte_at()
      parisc: Try to fixup kernel exception in bad_area_nosemaphore path of do_page_fault()
      parisc: Drop WARN_ON_ONCE() from flush_cache_vmap
      parisc: Revise gateway LWS calls to probe user read access
      parisc: Revise __get_user() to probe user read access

Randy Dunlap (2):
      parisc: Makefile: fix a typo in palo.conf
      parisc: Makefile: explain that 64BIT requires both 32-bit and 64-bit compilers
