Summary
KVM: s390: keyop: use mmu_lock to read gmap->asce
Details

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

KVM: s390: keyop: use mmu_lock to read gmap->asce

Every other dat_* consumer in this file (kvm_s390_get_skeys, set_skeys, get_cmma_bits, set_cmma_bits, MEM_CLR_CMMA, kvm_s390_fixup_prefix, kvm_test_age_gfn, kvm_age_gfn) reads kvm->arch.gmap->asce inside the mmu_lock read-side. keyop is the only outlier.

gmap->asce is mutated under write_lock(mmu_lock) by gmap_set_limit() and keyop might use a stale asce value for walking as KVM_S390_KEYOP and KVM_S390_VM_MEM_LIMIT_SIZE can run concurrently. This can result in memory corruption.
