Catalin Marinas 1a3389ffc5 drivers: dma-mapping: Do not leave an invalid area->pages pointer in dma_common_contiguous_remap()
The dma_common_pages_remap() function allocates a vm_struct object and
initialises the pages pointer to value passed as argument. However, when
this function is called dma_common_contiguous_remap(), the pages array
is only temporarily allocated, being freed shortly after
dma_common_contiguous_remap() returns. Architecture code checking the
validity of an area->pages pointer would incorrectly dereference already
freed pointers. This has been exposed by the arm64 commit 44176bb38f
("arm64: Add support for DMA_ATTR_FORCE_CONTIGUOUS to IOMMU").

Fixes: 513510ddba ("common: dma-mapping: introduce common remapping functions")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
