Summary
drm/xe/uapi: Reject coh_none PAT index for CPU cached memory in madvise
Details

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

drm/xe/uapi: Reject coh_none PAT index for CPU cached memory in madvise

Add validation in xevmmadviseioctl() to reject PAT indices with XECOH_NONE coherency mode when applied to CPU cached memory.

Using cohnone with CPU cached buffers is a security issue. When the kernel clears pages before reallocation, the clear operation stays in CPU cache (dirty). GPU with cohnone can bypass CPU caches and read stale sensitive data directly from DRAM, potentially leaking data from previously freed pages of other processes.

This aligns with the existing validation in vmbind path (xevmbindioctlvalidatebo).

v2(Matthew brost) - Add fixes - Move one debug print to better place

v3(Matthew Auld) - Should be drm/xe/uapi - More Cc

v4(Shuicheng Lin) - Fix kmem leak issues by the way

v5 - Remove kmem leak because it has been merged by another patch

v6 - Remove the fix which is not related to current fix

v7 - No change

v8 - Rebase

v9 - Limit the restrictions to iGPU

v10 - No change

(cherry picked from commit 016ccdb674b8c899940b3944952c96a6a490d10a)
