We are seeing a sparse warning in gcs_restore_signal():
arch/arm64/kernel/signal.c:1054:9: sparse: sparse: cast removes address space '__user' of expression
when storing the final GCSPR_EL0 value back into the register, caused by
the fact that write_sysreg_s() casts the value it writes to a u64 which
sparse sees as discarding the __userness of the pointer.
Avoid this by treating the address as an integer, casting to a pointer only
when using it to write to userspace.
While we're at it also inline gcs_signal_cap_valid() into it's one user
and make equivalent updates to gcs_signal_entry().
