Summary
misc: fastrpc: fix list iterator in fastrpc_req_mem_unmap_impl
Details

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

misc: fastrpc: fix list iterator in fastrpc_req_mem_unmap_impl

This is another instance of incorrect use of list iterator and checking it for NULL.

The list iterator value 'map' will always be set and non-NULL by list_for_each_entry(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator value will be NULL if the list is empty (in this case, the check 'if (!map) {' will always be false and never exit as expected).

To fix the bug, use a new variable 'iter' as the list iterator, while use the original variable 'map' as a dedicated pointer to point to the found element.

Without this patch, Kernel crashes with below trace:
