In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

arm64: Set nocfi on swsusparchresume()

A DABT is reported[1] on an android based system when resume from hiberate. This happens because swsusparchsuspendexit() is marked with SYMCODE() and does not have a CFI hash, but swsusparchresume() will attempt to verify the CFI hash when calling a copy of swsusparchsuspendexit().

Given that there's an existing requirement that the entrypoint to swsusparchsuspendexit() is the first byte of the .hibernateexit.text section, we cannot fix this by marking swsusparchsuspendexit() with SYMFUNC(). The simplest fix for now is to disable the CFI check in swsusparchresume().

Mark swsusparchresume() as nocfi to disable the CFI check.
