[ Upstream commit 4152433c397697acc4b02c4a10d17d5859c2730d ]
The EFI stub random allocator used for kaslr on arm64 has a subtle
bug. In function get_entry_num_slots() which counts the number of
possible allocation "slots" for the image in a given chunk of free
EFI memory, "last_slot" can become negative if the chunk is smaller
than the requested allocation size.
The test "if (first_slot > last_slot)" doesn't catch it because
both first_slot and last_slot are unsigned.
I chose not to make them signed to avoid problems if this is ever
used on architectures where there are meaningful addresses with the
top bit set. Instead, fix it with an additional test against the
allocation size.
This can cause a boot failure in addition to a loss of randomisation
due to another bug in the arm64 stub fixed separately.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
