In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS: Avoid writeback threads getting stuck in mempool_alloc()
In a low memory situation, allow the NFS writeback code to fail without
getting stuck in infinite loops in mempool_alloc().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio_console: eliminate anonymous module_init & module_exit
Eliminate anonymous module_init() and module_exit(), which can lead to
confusion or ambiguity when reading System.map, crashes/oops/bugs,
or an initcall_debug log.
Give each of these init and exit functions unique driver-specific
names to eliminate the anonymous names.
Example 1: (System.map)
ffffffff832fc78c t init
ffffffff832fc79e t init
ffffffff832fc8f8 t init
Example 2: (initcall_debug log)
calling init+0x0/0x12 @ 1
initcall init+0x0/0x12 returned 0 after 15 usecs
calling init+0x0/0x60 @ 1
initcall init+0x0/0x60 returned 0 after 2 usecs
calling init+0x0/0x9a @ 1
initcall init+0x0/0x9a returned 0 after 74 usecs

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
habanalabs: fix possible memory leak in MMU DR fini
This patch fixes what seems to be copy paste error.
We will have a memory leak if the host-resident shadow is NULL (which
will likely happen as the DR and HR are not dependent).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4.2: fix reference count leaks in _nfs42_proc_copy_notify()
[You don't often get email from xiongx18@fudan.edu.cn. Learn why this is important at http://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification.]
The reference counting issue happens in two error paths in the
function _nfs42_proc_copy_notify(). In both error paths, the function
simply returns the error code and forgets to balance the refcount of
object `ctx`, bumped by get_nfs_open_context() earlier, which may
cause refcount leaks.
Fix it by balancing refcount of the `ctx` object before the function
returns in both error paths.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: vchiq_core: handle NULL result of find_service_by_handle
In case of an invalid handle the function find_servive_by_handle
returns NULL. So take care of this and avoid a NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: wfx: fix an error handling in wfx_init_common()
One error handler of wfx_init_common() return without calling
ieee80211_free_hw(hw), which may result in memory leak. And I add
one err label to unify the error handler, which is useful for the
subsequent changes.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmmremap.c: avoid pointless invalidate_range_start/end on mremap(old_size=0)
If an mremap() syscall with old_size=0 ends up in move_page_tables(), it
will call invalidate_range_start()/invalidate_range_end() unnecessarily,
i.e. with an empty range.
This causes a WARN in KVM's mmu_notifier. In the past, empty ranges
have been diagnosed to be off-by-one bugs, hence the WARNing. Given the
low (so far) number of unique reports, the benefits of detecting more
buggy callers seem to outweigh the cost of having to fix cases such as
this one, where userspace is doing something silly. In this particular
case, an early return from move_page_tables() is enough to fix the
issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: Restrict usage of GPIO chip irq members before initialization
GPIO chip irq members are exposed before they could be completely
initialized and this leads to race conditions.
One such issue was observed for the gc->irq.domain variable which
was accessed through the I2C interface in gpiochip_to_irq() before
it could be initialized by gpiochip_add_irqchip(). This resulted in
Kernel NULL pointer dereference.
Following are the logs for reference :-
kernel: Call Trace:
kernel: gpiod_to_irq+0x53/0x70
kernel: acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get_by+0x113/0x1f0
kernel: i2c_acpi_get_irq+0xc0/0xd0
kernel: i2c_device_probe+0x28a/0x2a0
kernel: really_probe+0xf2/0x460
kernel: RIP: 0010:gpiochip_to_irq+0x47/0xc0
To avoid such scenarios, restrict usage of GPIO chip irq members before
they are completely initialized.
