Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

misc: fastrpc: fix list iterator in fastrpc_req_mem_unmap_impl

This is another instance of incorrect use of list iterator and
checking it for NULL.

The list iterator value 'map' will *always* be set and non-NULL
by list_for_each_entry(), so it is incorrect to assume that the
iterator value will be NULL if the list is empty (in this case, the
check 'if (!map) {' will always be false and never exit as expected).

To fix the bug, use a new variable 'iter' as the list iterator,
while use the original variable 'map' as a dedicated pointer to
point to the found element.

Without this patch, Kernel crashes with below trace:

Unable to handle kernel access to user memory outside uaccess routines
at virtual address 0000ffff7fb03750
