[PATCH 4.9 10/63] s390: TASK_SIZE for kernel threads

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Mar 13 2017 - 04:42:25 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit fb94a687d96c570d46332a4a890f1dcb7310e643 upstream.

Return a sensible value if TASK_SIZE if called from a kernel thread.

This gets us around an issue with copy_mount_options that does a magic
size calculation "TASK_SIZE - (unsigned long)data" while in a kernel
thread and data pointing to kernel space.
