csr_sscratch CSR holds current task_struct address when hart is in user
space. Trap handler on entry spills csr_sscratch into "tp" (x2) register
and zeroes out csr_sscratch CSR. Trap handler on exit reloads "tp" with
expected user mode value and place current task_struct address again in
csr_sscratch CSR.
This patch assumes "tp" is pointing to task_struct. If value in
csr_sscratch is numerically greater than "tp" then it assumes csr_sscratch
is correct address of current task_struct. This logic holds when
- hart is in user space, "tp" will be less than csr_sscratch.
- hart is in kernel space but not in trap handler, "tp" will be more
than csr_sscratch (csr_sscratch being equal to 0).
- hart is executing trap handler
- "tp" is still pointing to user mode but csr_sscratch contains
ptr to task_struct. Thus numerically higher.
- "tp" is pointing to task_struct but csr_sscratch now contains
either 0 or numerically smaller value (transiently holds
user mode tp)
