AZL-85848

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

ima: verify the previous kernel's IMA buffer lies in addressable RAM

Patch series "Address page fault in imarestoremeasurement_list()", v3.

When the second-stage kernel is booted via kexec with a limiting command line such as "mem=<size>" we observe a pafe fault that happens.

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff97793ff47000
RIP: ima_restore_measurement_list+0xdc/0x45a
#PF: error_code(0x0000)  not-present page

This happens on x86_64 only, as this is already fixed in aarch64 in commit: cbf9c4b9617b ("of: check previous kernel's ima-kexec-buffer against memory bounds")

This patch (of 3):

When the second-stage kernel is booted with a limiting command line (e.g. "mem=<size>"), the IMA measurement buffer handed over from the previous kernel may fall outside the addressable RAM of the new kernel. Accessing such a buffer can fault during early restore.

Introduce a small generic helper, imavalidaterange(), which verifies that a physical [start, end] range for the previous-kernel IMA buffer lies within addressable memory: - On x86, use pfnrangeismapped(). - On OF based architectures, use pageis_ram().
