[PATCH 2/2] xtensa: use XCHAL_NUM_AREGS as pt_regs::areg size

From: Max Filippov
Date: Sun Mar 06 2022 - 01:50:43 EST


struct pt_regs is used to access both kernel and user exception frames.
User exception frames may contain up to XCHAL_NUM_AREG registers that
task creation and signal delivery code may access, but pt_regs::areg
array has only 16 entries that cover only the kernel exception frame.
This results in the following build error:

arch/xtensa/kernel/process.c: In function 'copy_thread':
arch/xtensa/kernel/process.c:262:52: error: array subscript 53 is above
array bounds of 'long unsigned int[16]' [-Werror=array-bounds]
262 | put_user(regs->areg[caller_ars+1],

Change struct pt_regs::areg size to XCHAL_NUM_AREGS so that it covers
the whole user exception frame. Adjust task_pt_regs and drop additional
register copying code from copy_thread now that the whole user exception
stack frame is copied.
