Subject: CVE-2023-52903: io_uring: lock overflowing for IOPOLL

Description
===========

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

io_uring: lock overflowing for IOPOLL

syzbot reports an issue with overflow filling for IOPOLL:

There is no real problem for normal IOPOLL as flush is also called with
uring_lock taken, but it's getting more complicated for IOPOLL|SQPOLL,
for which __io_cqring_overflow_flush() happens from the CQ waiting path.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52903 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
