Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dpaa2-eth: retrieve the virtual address before dma_unmap The TSO header was DMA unmapped before the virtual address was retrieved
and then used to free the buffer. This meant that we were actually
removing the DMA map and then trying to search for it to help in
retrieving the virtual address. This lead to a invalid virtual address
being used in the kfree call. Fix this by calling dpaa2_iova_to_virt() prior to the dma_unmap call. [ 487.231819] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffd9807000008 (...) [ 487.354061] Hardware name: SolidRun LX2160A Honeycomb (DT)
