CVE-2022-50159

of: check previous kernel's ima-kexec-buffer against memory bounds

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

of: check previous kernel's ima-kexec-buffer against memory bounds

Presently ima_get_kexec_buffer() doesn't check if the previous kernel's
ima-kexec-buffer lies outside the addressable memory range. This can result
in a kernel panic if the new kernel is booted with 'mem=X' arg and the
ima-kexec-buffer was allocated beyond that range by the previous kernel.
The panic is usually of the form below:

$ sudo kexec --initrd initrd vmlinux --append='mem=16G'

Fix this issue by checking returned PFN range of previous kernel's
ima-kexec-buffer with page_is_ram() to ensure correct memory bounds.
