  "title": "mm: filemap: retain mapped dropbehind folios",
  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  mm: filemap: retain mapped dropbehind folios  Fault-around can map ready dropbehind folios without going through the normal page-cache lookup that clears dropbehind.  A mapping represents a competing cached user, so retain the folio instead of forcibly unmapping it when writeback completes.  For a mapped folio, folio_unmap_invalidate() can call unmap_mapping_folio(), which takes i_mmap_rwsem and may sleep.  Retaining mapped folios avoids this path when folio_end_dropbehind() runs in non-preemptible task context.  Tal was able to trigger a sleeping-in-atomic warning due to this [1].  Unmapped dropbehind folios continue through the existing invalidation path.",
