Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/gpusvm: publish dpagemap early to avoid device mapping leak on error

drm_gpusvm_get_pages() only stored the local dpagemap into
svm_pages->dpagemap on the success path. If a later page failed (e.g.
-EOPNOTSUPP when ctx->allow_mixed is false) and jumped to err_unmap,
svm_pages->dpagemap was still NULL, so __drm_gpusvm_unmap_pages() skipped
device_unmap() and leaked the device mappings already created.

Assign svm_pages->dpagemap when the first device page is mapped so the
err_unmap path can device_unmap() those mappings.

This issue was found by Sashiko AI review.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-68240 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
