In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64/gcs: Fix error handling in arch set shadow stack status()
alloc gcs() returns an error-encoded pointer on failure, which comes
from do mmap(), not NULL.
The current NULL check fails to detect errors, which could lead to using
an invalid GCS address.
Use IS ERR VALUE() to properly detect errors, consistent with the
check in gcs alloc thread stack().
