Kevin Brodsky a3b4647e2f arm64: signal: Ensure signal delivery failure is recoverable
Commit eaf62ce156 ("arm64/signal: Set up and restore the GCS
context for signal handlers") introduced a potential failure point
at the end of setup_return(). This is unfortunate as it is too late
to deliver a SIGSEGV: if that SIGSEGV is handled, the subsequent
sigreturn will end up returning to the original handler, which is
not the intention (since we failed to deliver that signal).

Make sure this does not happen by calling gcs_signal_entry()
at the very beginning of setup_return(), and add a comment just
after to discourage error cases being introduced from that point
onwards.

While at it, also take care of copy_siginfo_to_user(): since it may
fail, we shouldn't be calling it after setup_return() either. Call
it before setup_return() instead, and move the setting of X1/X2
inside setup_return() where it belongs (after the "point of no
failure").

Background: the first part of setup_rt_frame(), including
setup_sigframe(), has no impact on the execution of the interrupted
thread. The signal frame is written to the stack, but the stack
pointer remains unchanged. Failure at this stage can be recovered by
a SIGSEGV handler, and sigreturn will restore the original context,
at the point where the original signal occurred. On the other hand,
once setup_return() has updated registers including SP, the thread's
control flow has been modified and we must deliver the original
signal.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
