[PATCH 31/36] arm: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2018-01-09 20:56:00
Also in: linux-arch, linux-arm-kernel, linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: arm port, the rest · Maintainers: Russell King, Linus Torvalds

ARM does not carry FPU state in the thread structure, so it can declare
no usercopy whitelist at all.
