From: Chunyan Zhang zhang.lyra@gmail.com
[ Upstream commit 36b0cb84ee858f02c256d26f0cb4229c78e3399e ]
An additional 'ip' will be pushed to the stack, for restoring the DACR later, if CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN defined.
However, the fixup still get the err_ptr by add #8*4 to sp, which results in the fact that the code area pointed by the LR will be overwritten, or the kernel will crash if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is enabled.
This patch fixes the stack mismatch.
