In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mm/gup: handle NULL pages in unpin_user_pages()The recent addition of "pofs" (pages or folios) handling to gup has a
flaw: it assumes that unpin_user_pages() handles NULL pages in the pages**
array.  That's not the case, as I discovered when I ran on a new
configuration on my test machine.Fix this by skipping NULL pages in unpin_user_pages(), just like
unpin_folios() already does.Details: when booting on x86 with "numa=fake=2 movablecore=4G" on Linux
6.12, and running this:...I get the following crash:BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
