Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
intel_th: msu: Fix vmalloced buffers
After commit f5ff79fddf0e ("dma-mapping: remove CONFIG_DMA_REMAP") there's
a chance of DMA buffer getting allocated via vmalloc(), which messes up
the mmapping code:
> RIP: msc_mmap_fault [intel_th_msu]
> Call Trace:
> <TASK>
> __do_fault
> do_fault
...
Fix this by accounting for vmalloc possibility.
