Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/ttm: fix undefined behavior in bit shift for TTM_TT_FLAG_PRIV_POPULATED

Shifting signed 32-bit value by 31 bits is undefined, so changing

significant bit to unsigned. The UBSAN warning calltrace like below:

UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in ./include/drm/ttm/ttm_tt.h:122:26

left shift of 1 by 31 places cannot be represented in type 'int'
