[PATCH 4.9 111/171] futex: futex_wake_op, do not fail on invalid op

[ Upstream commit e78c38f6bdd900b2ad9ac9df8eff58b745dc5b3c ]

In commit 30d6e0a4190d ("futex: Remove duplicated code and fix undefined
behaviour"), I let FUTEX_WAKE_OP to fail on invalid op. Namely when op
should be considered as shift and the shift is out of range (< 0 or > 31).

But strace's test suite does this madness:

futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xa0caffee);
futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xbadfaced);
futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xffffffff);

When I pick the first 0xa0caffee, it decodes as:

0x80000000 & 0xa0caffee: oparg is shift
0x70000000 & 0xa0caffee: op is FUTEX_OP_OR
0x0f000000 & 0xa0caffee: cmp is FUTEX_OP_CMP_EQ
0x00fff000 & 0xa0caffee: oparg is sign-extended 0xcaf = -849
0x00000fff & 0xa0caffee: cmparg is sign-extended 0xfee = -18

That means the op tries to do this:

(futex |= (1 << (-849))) == -18

which is completely bogus. The new check of op in the code is:

if (encoded_op & (FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT << 28)) {
if (oparg < 0 || oparg > 31)
return -EINVAL;
oparg = 1 << oparg;
}

which results obviously in the "Invalid argument" errno:

FAIL: futex
===========

futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xa0caffee) = -1: Invalid argument
futex.test: failed test: ../futex failed with code 1

So let us soften the failure to print only a (ratelimited) message, crop
the value and continue as if it were right. When userspace keeps up, we
can switch this to return -EINVAL again.

[v2] Do not return 0 immediatelly, proceed with the cropped value.
