Nitpick: use 'unsigned long __user *gcspr_el0' as in the
gcs_signal_entry(). It's more consistent and probably less casting.

Can the user change GCSPR_EL0 to a non-shadow-stack region, fake the
cap before sigreturn? copy_from_user() cannot check it's a GCS page.
Does it actually matter?

Doesn't the second put_user_gcs() override the previous ret?

Wondering if we need the barrier both for entry and restore. If the
restore happens on another CPU, we have the barriers in the context
switch code already. If it's only the kernel writing the caps with
GCSSTTR on setting up the stack and checking it on return, a single
barrier is sufficient (can be this one). If the user can write something
on the stack or maybe doing a sigreturn without fully unwinding the
stack, we may need both. Either way, it would help to add some comments
on these barriers.
