Description Rohit Keshri 2022-11-18 09:58:45 UTC

A number of page reference counting issues in drivers dealing with device private ZONE_DEVICE pages.  These result in use-after-free type bugs, either from accessing a struct page which no longer exists because it has been removed or accessing fields within the struct page which are no longer valid because the page has been freed.
