Subject: CVE-2025-22044: acpi: nfit: fix narrowing conversion in acpi_nfit_ctl
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
acpi: nfit: fix narrowing conversion in acpi_nfit_ctl
Syzkaller has reported a warning in to_nfit_bus_uuid(): "only secondary
bus families can be translated". This warning is emited if the argument
is equal to NVDIMM_BUS_FAMILY_NFIT == 0. Function acpi_nfit_ctl() first
verifies that a user-provided value call_pkg->nd_family of type u64 is
not equal to 0. Then the value is converted to int, and only after that
is compared to NVDIMM_BUS_FAMILY_MAX. This can lead to passing an invalid
argument to acpi_nfit_ctl(), if call_pkg->nd_family is non-zero, while
the lower 32 bits are zero.
Furthermore, it is best to return EINVAL immediately upon seeing the
invalid user input. The WARNING is insufficient to prevent further
undefined behavior based on other invalid user input.
All checks of the input value should be applied to the original variable
call_pkg->nd_family.

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:
