CVE-2022-50151
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: cdns3: fix random warning message when driver load
kmalloc was called with mem_flags, which is passed down in cdns3_allocate_trb_pool() and have GFP_DMA32 flags. kmall_fix_flags() report warning.
GFP_DMA32 is not useful at all. dma_alloc_coherent() will handle DMA memory region correctly by pool->dev. GFP_DMA32 can be removed safely.
