commit3b05a1e517upstream. "powerpc_security_features" is "unsigned long", i.e. 32-bit or 64-bit, depending on the platform (PPC_FSL_BOOK3E or PPC_BOOK3S_64). Hence casting its address to "u64 *", and calling debugfs_create_x64() is wrong, and leaks 32-bit of nearby data to userspace on 32-bit platforms. While all currently defined SEC_FTR_* security feature flags fit in 32-bit, they all have "ULL" suffixes to make them 64-bit constants. Hence fix the leak by changing the type of "powerpc_security_features" (and the parameter types of its accessors) to "u64". This also allows to drop the cast.

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.
