The results of "access_ok()" can be mis-speculated. The result is that
the CPU can end speculatively:
if (access_ok(from, size))
// Right here
For the same reason as done in copy_from_user() in commit 74e19ef0ff
("uaccess: Add speculation barrier to copy_from_user()"), add a speculation
barrier to copy_from_user_iter().

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 reStructuredText 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.
