Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Require a BPF cpumask for bpf_cpumask_populate()
bpf_cpumask_populate() writes to its destination with bitmap_copy(), but
the destination is typed as struct cpumask *. That allows the verifier to
accept borrowed cpumask pointers returned by read-only kfuncs, such as
scx_bpf_get_online_cpumask(), as a writable destination.
Make the destination a struct bpf_cpumask * so populate follows the same
ownership rule as the other mutating cpumask kfuncs. Query kfuncs continue
to accept const struct cpumask * inputs.
