commit 8319e9d5ad98ffccd19f35664382c73cea216193 upstream.
The mixed mode runtime wrappers are fragile when it comes to how the
memory referred to by its pointer arguments are laid out in memory, due
to the fact that it translates these addresses to physical addresses that
the runtime services can dereference when running in 1:1 mode. Since
vmalloc'ed pages (including the vmap'ed stack) are not contiguous in the
physical address space, this scheme only works if the referenced memory
objects do not cross page boundaries.
Currently, the mixed mode runtime service wrappers require that all by-ref
arguments that live in the vmalloc space have a size that is a power of 2,
and are aligned to that same value. While this is a sensible way to
construct an object that is guaranteed not to cross a page boundary, it is
overly strict when it comes to checking whether a given object violates
this requirement, as we can simply take the physical address of the first
and the last byte, and verify that they point into the same physical page.
When this check fails, we emit a WARN(), but then simply proceed with the
call, which could cause data corruption if the next physical page belongs
to a mapping that is entirely unrelated.
Given that with vmap'ed stacks, this condition is much more likely to
trigger, let's relax the condition a bit, but fail the runtime service
call if it does trigger.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
