CVE-2025-39731

/// Technical description

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

f2fs: vm_unmap_ram() may be called from an invalid context

When testing F2FS with xfstests using UFS backed virtual disks the

kernel complains sometimes that f2fs_release_decomp_mem() calls

vm_unmap_ram() from an invalid context. Example trace from

f2fs/007 test:

f2fs/007 5s ... [12:59:38][ 8.902525] run fstests f2fs/007
