[PATCH stable 6.6] lib/buildid: Handle memfd_secret() files in build_id_parse()

[PATCH stable 6.6] lib/buildid: Handle memfd_secret() files in build_id_parse()

[Chen Linxuan]

Backport of a similar change from commit 5ac9b4e935df ("lib/buildid:
Handle memfd_secret() files in build_id_parse()") to address an issue
where accessing secret memfd contents through build_id_parse() would
trigger faults.

Original report and repro can be found in [0].

  [0] https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/ZwyG8Uro%2FSyTXAni@ly-workstation/

This repro will cause BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request in
build_id_parse in 5.15/6.1/6.6.

Some other discussions can be found in [1].

You dropped all the original signed-off-by and changelog text.  Just
provide a backport with all of the original information, and then if you
had to do something "different", put that in the signed-off-by area.
THere are loads of examples on the list for how that was done.

thanks,

The original commit is based on commit de3ec364c3c3 ("lib/buildid: add
single folio-based file reader abstraction"). `git cherry-pick` result lots of
conflicts. So I rewrite same logic on old code.

Do you means that I should:

1. Run git cherry-pick 5ac9b4e935df on stable branches;
2. Resolve conflicts by drop all changes then apply changes
   as I send in this email;
3. Note why content of this patch is different from the original
   one after original signed-off-by area, but before the --- separator.

I am not familiar with contributing to stable kernel tree.
Sorry for bothering.

Yep, for the purpose of fixing the issue, I wouldn't try to backport
my folio-based changes to lib/buildid. What you are doing here (an
equivalent direct check for secretmem) makes sense to me.

Then keep the original commit message, tell us what the original commit
id was, and then put in the signed-off-by area what you changed.

There's loads of examples of backports in this format on the stable
mailing list, look at them for what to do.
