Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/userfaultfd: fix kmap_local LIFO ordering for CONFIG_HIGHPTE With CONFIG_HIGHPTE on 32-bit ARM, move_pages_pte() maps PTE pages using kmap_local_page(), which requires unmapping in Last-In-First-Out order. The current code maps dst_pte first, then src_pte, but unmaps them in the same order (dst_pte, src_pte), violating the LIFO requirement. This causes the warning in kunmap_local_indexed(): WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 604 at mm/
