arm64: Validate tagged addresses in access_ok() called from kernel threads
__range_ok(), invoked from access_ok(), clears the tag of the user
address only if CONFIG_ARM64_TAGGED_ADDR_ABI is enabled and the thread
opted in to the relaxed ABI. The latter sets the TIF_TAGGED_ADDR thread
flag. In the case of asynchronous I/O (e.g. io_submit()), the
access_ok() may be called from a kernel thread. Since kernel threads
don't have TIF_TAGGED_ADDR set, access_ok() will fail for valid tagged
user addresses. Example from the ffs_user_copy_worker() thread:
use_mm(io_data->mm);
ret = ffs_copy_to_iter(io_data->buf, ret, &io_data->data);
unuse_mm(io_data->mm);
Relax the __range_ok() check to always untag the user address if called
in the context of a kernel thread. The user pointers would have already
been checked via aio_setup_rw() -> import_{single_range,iovec}() at the
time of the asynchronous I/O request.
