This is because flush_icache_range() is called on user addresses.

The same problem was detected some time ago on PPC64. It was fixed by
enabling KUAP in commit 59bee45b97 ("powerpc/mm: Fix missing KUAP
disable in flush_coherent_icache()").

PPC32 doesn't use flush_coherent_icache() and fallbacks on
clean_dcache_range() and invalidate_icache_range().

We could fix it similarly by enabling user access in those functions,
but this is overkill for just flushing two instructions.

The two instructions are 8 bytes aligned, so a single dcbst/icbi is
enough to flush them. Do like __patch_instruction() and inline
a dcbst followed by an icbi just after the write of the instructions,
while user access is still allowed. The isync is not required because
rfi will be used to return to user.

icbi() is handled as a read so read-write user access is needed.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
