The quilt patch titled
     Subject: ntfs: check overflow when iterating ATTR_RECORDs
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ntfs-check-overflow-when-iterates-attr_records.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: ntfs: check overflow when iterating ATTR_RECORDs
Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2022 00:09:38 +0800

Kernel iterates over ATTR_RECORDs in mft record in ntfs_attr_find(). 
Because the ATTR_RECORDs are next to each other, kernel can get the next
ATTR_RECORD from end address of current ATTR_RECORD, through current
ATTR_RECORD length field.

The problem is that during iteration, when kernel calculates the end
address of current ATTR_RECORD, kernel may trigger an integer overflow bug
in executing `a = (ATTR_RECORD*)((u8*)a + le32_to_cpu(a->length))`.  This
may wrap, leading to a forever iteration on 32bit systems.

This patch solves it by adding some checks on calculating end address
of current ATTR_RECORD during iteration.
