Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix race in z_erofs_get_gbuf()
In z_erofs_get_gbuf(), the current task may be migrated to another
CPU between `z_erofs_gbuf_id()` and `spin_lock(&gbuf->lock)`.
Therefore, z_erofs_put_gbuf() will trigger the following issue
which was found by stress test:
