## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  cgroup/rstat: validate cpu before css_rstat_cpu() access  css_rstat_updated() is exposed as a BPF kfunc and accepts a caller-provided cpu argument. The function uses cpu for per-cpu rstat lookups without checking whether it refers to a valid possible CPU.  A BPF iter/cgroup program with CAP_BPF and CAP_PERFMON can pass an invalid cpu value. On an unfixed UBSCAN_BOUNDS test kernel, cpu == 0x7fffffff triggers:    UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in kernel/cgroup/rstat.c:31:9   index 2147483647 is out of range for type 'long unsigned int [64]'   Call Trace:     css_rstat_updated     bpf_iter_run_prog     cgroup_iter_seq_show     bpf_seq_read  Add cpu validation to the BPF-facing css_rstat_updated() kfunc and move the common implementation to __css_rstat_updated() for in-kernel callers.
