H A Dn2_core.c73810a06 Thu Apr 13 03:20:23 CDT 2017 Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> crypto: N2 - Replace racy task affinity logic

spu_queue_register() needs to invoke setup functions on a particular
CPU. This is achieved by temporarily setting the affinity of the
calling user space thread to the requested CPU and reset it to the original
affinity afterwards.

That's racy vs. CPU hotplug and concurrent affinity settings for that
thread resulting in code executing on the wrong CPU and overwriting the
new affinity setting.

Replace it by using work_on_cpu_safe() which guarantees to run the code on
the requested CPU or to fail in case the CPU is offline.
