[MIPS] Fixup copy_from_user_inatomic
From the 01408c4939479ec46c15aa7ef6e2406be50eeeca log message: The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*. This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing to see). If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an error. The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so causes the problem. It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out bytes on failure. < --- end cite --- > This patch finally implements at least a not so pretty solution by duplicating the relevant part of __copy_user.

+ * Spec
+ *
+ * memcpy copies len bytes from src to dst and sets v0 to dst.
+ * It assumes that
+ * - src and dst don't overlap
+ * - src is readable
+ * - dst is writable
+ * memcpy uses the standard calling convention
+ *
+ * __copy_user copies up to len bytes from src to dst and sets a2 (len) to
+ * the number of uncopied bytes due to an exception caused by a read or write.
+ * __copy_user assumes that src and dst don't overlap, and that the call is
+ * implementing one of the following:
+ * copy_to_user
+ * - src is readable (no exceptions when reading src)
+ * copy_from_user
+ * - dst is writable (no exceptions when writing dst)
+ * __copy_user uses a non-standard calling convention; see
+ * include/asm-mips/uaccess.h
+ *
+ * When an exception happens on a load, the handler must
+ # ensure that all of the destination buffer is overwritten to prevent
+ * leaking information to user mode programs.
+ */
+
+/*
+ * Implementation
+ */
+
+/*
+ * The exception handler for loads requires that:
+ * 1- AT contain the address of the byte just past the end of the source
+ * of the copy,
+ * 2- src_entry <= src < AT, and
+ * 3- (dst - src) == (dst_entry - src_entry),
+ * The _entry suffix denotes values when __copy_user was called.
+ *
+ * (1) is set up up by uaccess.h and maintained by not writing AT in copy_user
+ * (2) is met by incrementing src by the number of bytes copied
+ * (3) is met by not doing loads between a pair of increments of dst and src
+ *
+ * The exception handlers for stores adjust len (if necessary) and return.
+ * These handlers do not need to overwrite any data.
+ *
+ * For __rmemcpy and memmove an exception is always a kernel bug, therefore
+ * they're not protected.
