commit 0143d148d1e882fb1538dc9974c94d63961719b9 upstream. The current implementation of usbdev_mmap uses usb_alloc_coherent to allocate memory pages that will later be mapped into the user space. Meanwhile, usb_alloc_coherent employs three different methods to allocate memory, as outlined below: * If hcd->localmem_pool is non-null, it uses gen_pool_dma_alloc to allocate memory; * If DMA is not available, it uses kmalloc to allocate memory; * Otherwise, it uses dma_alloc_coherent. However, it should be noted that gen_pool_dma_alloc does not guarantee that the resulting memory will be page-aligned. Furthermore, trying to map slab pages (i.e., memory allocated by kmalloc) into the user space is not resonable and can lead to problems, such as a type confusion bug when PAGE_TABLE_CHECK=y [1]. To address these issues, this patch introduces hcd_alloc_coherent_pages, which addresses the above two problems. Specifically, hcd_alloc_coherent_pages uses gen_pool_dma_alloc_align instead of gen_pool_dma_alloc to ensure that the memory is page-aligned. To replace kmalloc, hcd_alloc_coherent_pages directly allocates pages by calling __get_free_pages.

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.
