Recent change in how get_user() handles pointers [1] has a specific case for LAM. It assigns a different bitmask that's later used to check whether a pointer comes from userland in get_user().
While currently commented out (until LASS [2] is merged into the kernel) it's worth making changes to the LAM selftest ahead of time.
Add test case to LAM that utilizes a ioctl (FIOASYNC) syscall which uses get_user() in its implementation. Execute the syscall with differently tagged pointers to verify that valid user pointers are passing through and invalid kernel/non-canonical pointers are not.
Code was tested on a Sierra Forest Xeon machine that's LAM capable. The test was ran without issues with both the LAM lines from [1] untouched and commented out. The test was also ran without issues with LAM_SUP both enabled and disabled.
4/5 level pagetables code paths were also successfully tested in Simics on a 5-level capable machine.
