This fixes bugs in the copy_{to,from}_user hardening like this:

usercopy: kernel memory exposure attempt detected from c0d173c1 (kmalloc-256) (71 bytes)
Kernel bug detected[#1]:

Fixes: 9b1239451d6 ("Kernel: Activate CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY")
Fixes: FS#2305 and FS#2297

+Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Bounds check virt_addr_valid
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+The virt_addr_valid() function is meant to return true iff
+virt_to_page() will return a valid struct page reference. This is true
+iff the address provided is found within the unmapped address range
+between PAGE_OFFSET & MAP_BASE, but we don't currently check for that
+condition. Instead we simply mask the address to obtain what will be a
+physical address if the virtual address is indeed in the desired range,
+shift it to form a PFN & then call pfn_valid(). This can incorrectly
+return true if called with a virtual address which, after masking,
+happens to form a physical address corresponding to a valid PFN.
+
+For example we may vmalloc an address in the kernel mapped region
+starting a MAP_BASE & obtain the virtual address:
+
+  addr = 0xc000000000002000
+
+When masked by virt_to_phys(), which uses __pa() & in turn CPHYSADDR(),
+we obtain the following (bogus) physical address:
+
+  addr = 0x2000
+
+In a common system with PHYS_OFFSET=0 this will correspond to a valid
+struct page which should really be accessed by virtual address
+PAGE_OFFSET+0x2000, causing virt_addr_valid() to incorrectly return 1
+indicating that the original address corresponds to a struct page.
+
+This is equivalent to the ARM64 change made in commit ca219452c6b8
+("arm64: Correctly bounds check virt_addr_valid").
+
+This fixes fallout when hardened usercopy is enabled caused by the
+related commit 517e1fbeb65f ("mm/usercopy: Drop extra
+is_vmalloc_or_module() check") which removed a check for the vmalloc
+range that was present from the introduction of the hardened usercopy
+feature.
