csky restore_sigcontext() blindly overwrites regs->sr with the value it finds in sigcontext. Attacker can store whatever they want in there, which includes things like S-bit. Userland shouldn't be able to set that, or anything other than C flag (bit 0). Do the same thing other architectures with protected bits in flags register do - preserve everything that shouldn't be settable in user mode, picking the rest from the value saved is sigcontext.

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.
