Kernel for Galaxy S24, rebased on CLO sources (WIP)
defc914227
commit b90ecc0379eb7bbe79337b0c7289390a98752646 upstream.
Currently, associating a loop device with a different file descriptor
does not increment its diskseq. This allows the following race
condition:
1. Program X opens a loop device
2. Program X gets the diskseq of the loop device.
3. Program X associates a file with the loop device.
4. Program X passes the loop device major, minor, and diskseq to
something.
5. Program X exits.
6. Program Y detaches the file from the loop device.
7. Program Y attaches a different file to the loop device.
8. The opener finally gets around to opening the loop device and checks
that the diskseq is what it expects it to be. Even though the
diskseq is the expected value, the result is that the opener is
accessing the wrong file.
From discussions with Christoph Hellwig, it appears that
disk_force_media_change() was supposed to call inc_diskseq(), but in
fact it does not. Adding a Fixes: tag to indicate this. Christoph's
Reported-by is because he stated that disk_force_media_change()
calls inc_diskseq(), which is what led me to discover that it should but
does not.

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.
