In commit 2865d08d ("powerpc/mm: Move the DSISR_PROTFAULT sanity check") we moved the protection fault access check before the vma lookup. That means we hit that WARN_ON when user space accesses a kernel address. Before that commit this was handled by find_vma() not finding vma for the kernel address and considering that access as bad area access. Avoid the confusing WARN_ON and convert that to a ratelimited printk. With the patch we now get: for load: a.out[5997]: User access of kernel address (c00000000000dea0) - exploit attempt? (uid: 1000) a.out[5997]: segfault (11) at c00000000000dea0 nip 1317c0798 lr 7fff80d6441c code 1 in a.out[1317c0000+10000] a.out[5997]: code: 60000000 60420000 3c4c0002 38427790 4bffff20 3c4c0002 38427784 fbe1fff8 a.out[5997]: code: f821ffc1 7c3f0b78 60000000 e9228030 <89290000> 993f002f 60000000 383f0040 for exec: a.out[6067]: User access of kernel address (c00000000000dea0) - exploit attempt?
