In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: cdns3: fix random warning message when driver load
Warning log:
[ 4.141392] Unexpected gfp: 0x4 (GFP_DMA32). Fixing up to gfp: 0xa20 (GFP_ATOMIC). Fix your code!
[ 4.150340] CPU: 1 PID: 175 Comm: 1-0050 Not tainted 5.15.5-00039-g2fd9ae1b568c #20

{
...
page = kmalloc(sizeof(*page), mem_flags);
page->vaddr = dma_alloc_coherent(pool->dev, pool->allocation,
&page->dma, mem_flags);
...
}
kmalloc was called with mem_flags, which is passed down in
cdns3_allocate_trb_pool() and have GFP_DMA32 flags.
kmall_fix_flags() report warning.
GFP_DMA32 is not useful at all. dma_alloc_coherent() will handle
DMA memory region correctly by pool->dev. GFP_DMA32 can be removed
safely.
