ARM: 7384/1: ThumbEE: Disable userspace TEEHBR access for !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE
Currently when ThumbEE is not enabled (!CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE) the ThumbEE register states are not saved/restored at context switch. The default state of the ThumbEE Ctrl register (TEECR) allows userspace accesses to the ThumbEE Base Handler register (TEEHBR). This can cause unexpected behaviour when people use ThumbEE on !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE kernels, as well as allowing covert communication - eg between userspace tasks running inside chroot jails. This patch sets up TEECR in order to prevent user-space access to TEEHBR when !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE. In this case, tasks are sent SIGILL if they try to access TEEHBR.
