fs: binfmt_elf_efpic: fix personality for ELF-FDPIC
commit 7c3151585730b7095287be8162b846d31e6eee61 upstream.
The elf-fdpic loader hard sets the process personality to either
PER_LINUX_FDPIC for true elf-fdpic binaries or to PER_LINUX for normal ELF
binaries (in this case they would be constant displacement compiled with
-pie for example). The problem with that is that it will lose any other
bits that may be in the ELF header personality (such as the "bug
emulation" bits).
On the ARM architecture the ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT flag is used to signify a
normal 32bit binary - as opposed to a legacy 26bit address binary. This
matters since start_thread() will set the ARM CPSR register as required
based on this flag. If the elf-fdpic loader loses this bit the process
will be mis-configured and crash out pretty quickly.
Modify elf-fdpic loader personality setting so that it preserves the upper
three bytes by using the SET_PERSONALITY macro to set it. This macro in
the generic case sets PER_LINUX and preserves the upper bytes.
Architectures can override this for their specific use case, and ARM does
exactly this.
The problem shows up quite easily running under qemu using the ARM
architecture, but not necessarily on all types of real ARM hardware. If
the underlying ARM processor does not support the legacy 26-bit addressing
mode then everything will work as expected.
