Subject: CVE-2024-45001: net: mana: Fix RX buf alloc_size alignment and atomic op panic

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

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

net: mana: Fix RX buf alloc_size alignment and atomic op panic

The MANA driver's RX buffer alloc_size is passed into napi_build_skb() to
create SKB. skb_shinfo(skb) is located at the end of skb, and its alignment
is affected by the alloc_size passed into napi_build_skb(). The size needs
to be aligned properly for better performance and atomic operations.
Otherwise, on ARM64 CPU, for certain MTU settings like 4000, atomic
operations may panic on the skb_shinfo(skb)->dataref due to alignment fault.

To fix this bug, add proper alignment to the alloc_size calculation.

Sample panic info:
[  253.298819] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff000129ba5cce

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:
	https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/65f20b174ec0172f2d6bcfd8533ab9c9e7e347fa
