> The arm64 hibernate code manages the exception masking in an unsound
> way, leading to potential crashes and/or warnings during resume.
>
> When a hibernation image is saved in `swsusp_arch_suspend()`, all DAIF
> exceptions are masked (by virtue of `local_daif_save()`), and the
> suspended image is saved assuming that all DAIF exceptions will remain
> masked when the image is restored.
>
> When a hibernation image is resumed by `swsusp_arch_resume()`, only
> interrupts are masked (by virtue of `local_irq_disable()` in
> `resume_target_kernel()`). When pseudo-NMI is enabled the DAIF.IF bits
> will be clear, and regardless of pseudo-NMI the DAIF.DA bits will be
> clear.
>
> This means that there are two problems:
>
> (1) It is possible to take Debug, SError, or pseudo-NMI exceptions
> during the resume process. This is unsafe, as during the resume
> process both the old ane new kernels will tranisently be in an
> inconsistent state, and swsusp_arch_suspend_exit() won't retain
> an executable mapping of any exception vectors.
>
> Any exception taken here will be fatal and silent.
>
> (2) When re-entering the resumed kernel, some DAIF bits will be clear
> unexpectedly. This permits Debug, SError, or pseudo-NMI exceptions
> to be taken for a short period while the resumed kernel is not yet
> in a consistent state.
>
> This is detected by CONFIG_ARM64_DEBUG_PRIORITY_MASKING.
>
> Avoid these issues by masking all DAIF exceptions during resume.
