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

dm-bufio: fix sched in atomic context

If "try_verify_in_tasklet" is set for dm-verity, DM_BUFIO_CLIENT_NO_SLEEP
is enabled for dm-bufio. However, when bufio tries to evict buffers, there
is a chance to trigger scheduling in spin_lock_bh, the following warning
is hit:

That can be reproduced by:

  veritysetup format --data-block-size=4096 --hash-block-size=4096 /dev/vda /dev/vdb
  SIZE=$(blockdev --getsz /dev/vda)
  dmsetup create myverity -r --table "0 $SIZE verity 1 /dev/vda /dev/vdb 4096 4096 <data_blocks> 1 sha256 <root_hash> <salt> 1 try_verify_in_tasklet"
  mount /dev/dm-0 /mnt -o ro
  echo 102400 > /sys/module/dm_bufio/parameters/max_cache_size_bytes
