Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
iommu/vt-d: Fix qi_batch NULL pointer with nested parent domain<br />
<br />
The qi_batch is allocated when assigning cache tag for a domain. While<br />
for nested parent domain, it is missed. Hence, when trying to map pages<br />
to the nested parent, NULL dereference occurred. Also, there is potential<br />
memleak since there is no lock around domain->qi_batch allocation.<br />
<br />
To solve it, add a helper for qi_batch allocation, and call it in both<br />
the __cache_tag_assign_domain() and __cache_tag_assign_parent_domain().<br />
<br />
