Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/security: Use a mutex for interrupt exit code patching
Git-commit: 3c12b4df8d5e026345a19886ae375b3ebc33c0b6
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
References: stable-5.14.19 bsc#1193470 ltc#195599

commit 3c12b4df8d5e026345a19886ae375b3ebc33c0b6 upstream.

The mitigation-patching.sh script in the powerpc selftests toggles
all mitigations on and off simultaneously, revealing that rfi_flush
and stf_barrier cannot safely operate at the same time due to races
in updating the static key.

On some systems, the static key code throws a warning and the kernel
remains functional.  On others, the kernel will hang or crash.

Fix this by slapping on a mutex.
