x86/dumpstack/64: Don't evaluate exception stacks before setup
Cyrill reported the following crash:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000001ff0
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
RIP: 0010:get_stack_info+0xb3/0x148
It turns out that if the stack tracer is invoked before the exception stack
mappings are initialized in_exception_stack() can erroneously classify an
invalid address as an address inside of an exception stack:
begin = this_cpu_read(cea_exception_stacks); <- 0
end = begin + sizeof(exception stacks);
i.e. any address between 0 and end will be considered as exception stack
address and the subsequent code will then try to derefence the resulting
stack frame at a non mapped address.
end = begin + (unsigned long)ep->size;
==> end = 0x2000
regs = (struct pt_regs *)end - 1;
==> regs = 0x2000 - sizeof(struct pt_regs *) = 0x1ff0
info->next_sp = (unsigned long *)regs->sp;
==> Crashes due to accessing 0x1ff0
Prevent this by checking the validity of the cea_exception_stack base
address and bailing out if it is zero.
