If tcmu_handle_completions() has to process a padding shorter than sizeof(struct tcmu_cmd_entry), the current call to tcmu_flush_dcache_range() with sizeof(struct tcmu_cmd_entry) as length param is wrong and causes crashes on e.g. ARM, because tcmu_flush_dcache_range() in this case calls flush_dcache_page(vmalloc_to_page(start)); with start being an invalid address above the end of the vmalloc'ed area. The fix is to use the minimum of remaining ring space and sizeof(struct tcmu_cmd_entry) as the length param. The patch was tested on kernel 4.19.118.
