commit e14fd4ba8fb47fcf5f244366ec01ae94490cd86a upstream.
When a split lock is detected always make sure to disable interrupts
before returning from the trap handler.
The kernel exit code assumes that all exits run with interrupts
disabled, otherwise the SWAPGS sequence can race against interrupts and
cause recursing page faults and later panics.
The problem will only happen on CPUs with split lock disable
functionality, so Icelake Server, Tiger Lake, Snow Ridge, Jacobsville.

Fixes: bce9b042ec73 ("x86/traps: Disable interrupts in exc_aligment_check()") # v5.8+

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
