Description

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

arm64: hibernate: Fix level3 translation fault in swsusp_save()

On arm64 machines, swsusp_save() faults if it attempts to access
MEMBLOCK_NOMAP memory ranges. This can be reproduced in QEMU using UEFI
when booting with rodata=off debug_pagealloc=off and CONFIG_KFENCE=n:

hibernate+0xc4/0x378
state_store+0xf0/0x10c
kobj_attr_store+0x14/0x24

The reason is swsusp_save() -> copy_data_pages() -> page_is_saveable()
-> kernel_page_present() assuming that a page is always present when
can_set_direct_map() is false (all of rodata_full,
debug_pagealloc_enabled() and arm64_kfence_can_set_direct_map() false),
irrespective of the MEMBLOCK_NOMAP ranges. Such MEMBLOCK_NOMAP regions
should not be saved during hibernation.

This problem was introduced by changes to the pfn_valid() logic in
commit a7d9f306ba70 ("arm64: drop pfn_valid_within() and simplify
pfn_valid()").

Similar to other architectures, drop the !can_set_direct_map() check in
kernel_page_present() so that page_is_savable() skips such pages.
