[PATCH] efi/libstub: arm/arm64: don't use TASK_SIZE when randomising the RT space

[Ard Biesheuvel]

As reported by James, Catalin and Mark, commit e69176d68d26
("ef/libstub/arm/arm64: Randomize the base of the UEFI rt services
region") results in a crash in the firmware regardless of whether KASLR
is in effect or not, and whether the firmware implements EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL
or not.

Mark has identified the root cause to be the inappropriate use of
TASK_SIZE in the stub, which arm64 defines as

  #define TASK_SIZE             (test_thread_flag(TIF_32BIT) ? \
                                TASK_SIZE_32 : TASK_SIZE_64)

and testing thread flags at this point results in the dereference of
pointers in uninitialized structures.

So instead, introduce a preprocessor symbol EFI_RT_VIRTUAL_LIMIT and
define it to TASK_SIZE_64 on arm64 and TASK_SIZE on ARM, both of which
are compile time constants. Also, change the 'headroom' variable to
static const to force an error if this changes in the future.

Apologies for the breakage. On the systems I have tested, sp_el0 apparently
pointed somewhere sane when I inadvertently dereferenced it, and the
resulting addresses looked sufficiently random to me.

Ingo, once we have some confirmation that this makes the problem go away,
could you please take this straight into efi/core? Thanks.
