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

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

iommufd: Set end correctly when doing batch carry

Even though the test suite covers this it somehow became obscured that
this wasn't working.

The test iommufd_ioas.mock_domain.access_domain_destory would blow up
rarely.

end should be set to 1 because this just pushed an item, the carry, to the
pfns list.

Sometimes the test would blow up with:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

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/176f36a376c417b58d19f79edfce20db9317eaa2
