CVE-2026-89978

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

accel/amdxdna: return early from a zero-length flush

SYNC_BO does not constrain its size, so a request for zero bytes reaches
drm_clflush_virt_range(), which ends with an unconditional
clflushopt(end - 1). For an empty range that is the byte before the
mapping, and abo->mem.kva comes from vmap(), so the access lands in the
guard page below the vmalloc area and faults:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffd16fbbc70fff
  #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
  Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI
  CPU: 7 UID: 1000 Comm: sync_bo_probe
  RIP: 0010:drm_clflush_virt_range+0x3c/0x70
  Call Trace:
   amdxdna_drm_sync_bo_ioctl+0x124/0x430 [amdxdna]
   drm_ioctl+0x301/0x4c0
   __x64_sys_ioctl+0x115/0x2f0
   do_syscall_64+0xa6/0x3d0

Any process that can open the render node can do this. Reproduced 3 of 3
times on a Strix Point NPU (1022:17f0), by calling SYNC_BO with size 0 on
an AMDXDNA_BO_SHARE object. The import arm takes the same request but
flushes the whole scatterlist, so it survives it.

Nothing needs flushing for an empty range, so answer before choosing a
path.
