     userfaultfd-move-core-vma-manipulation-logic-to-mm-userfaultfdc-fix.patch

This patch was dropped because it was folded into userfaultfd-move-core-vma-manipulation-logic-to-mm-userfaultfdc.patch

Subject: mm: userfaultfd: fix user-after-free in userfaultfd_clear_vma()
Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2024 12:44:27 +0100

After invoking vma_modify_flags_uffd() in userfaultfd_clear_vma(), we may
have merged the vma, and depending on the kind of merge, deleted the vma,
rendering the vma pointer invalid.

The code incorrectly referenced this now possibly invalid vma pointer when
invoking userfaultfd_reset_ctx().

If no merge is possible, vma_modify_flags_uffd() performs a split and
returns the original vma.  Therefore the correct approach is to simply
pass the ret pointer to userfaultfd_ret_ctx().
