Subject: [PATCH] riscv: lib: uaccess: fix CSR_STATUS SR_SUM bit

Since commit 5d8544e2d007 ("RISC-V: Generic library routines and assembly") and commit ebcbd75e3962 ("riscv: Fix the bug in memory access fixup code"), if __clear_user and __copy_user return from an fixup branch, CSR_STATUS SR_SUM bit will be set, it is a vulnerability, so that S-mode memory accesses to pages that are accessible by U-mode will success. Disable S-mode access to U-mode memory should clear SR_SUM bit.

Fixes 5d8544e2d007 ("RISC-V: Generic library routines and assembly")
Fixes ebcbd75e3962 ("riscv: Fix the bug in memory access fixup code")
