Subject: CVE-2024-56368: ring-buffer: Fix overflow in __rb_map_vma

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

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

ring-buffer: Fix overflow in __rb_map_vma

An overflow occurred when performing the following calculation:

   nr_pages = ((nr_subbufs + 1) << subbuf_order) - pgoff;

Add a check before the calculation to avoid this problem.

syzbot reported this as a slab-out-of-bounds in __rb_map_vma:

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/ec12f30fe54234dd40ffee50dda8d2df10bd0871
