commit 5b61343b50590fb04a3f6be2cdc4868091757262 upstream. For various reasons based on the allocator behaviour and typical use-cases at the time, when the max32_alloc_size optimisation was introduced it seemed reasonable to couple the reset of the tracked size to the update of cached32_node upon freeing a relevant IOVA. However, since subsequent optimisations focused on helping genuine 32-bit devices make best use of even more limited address spaces, it is now a lot more likely for cached32_node to be anywhere in a "full" 32-bit address space, and as such more likely for space to become available from IOVAs below that node being freed. At this point, the short-cut in __cached_rbnode_delete_update() really doesn't hold up any more, and we need to fix the logic to reliably provide the expected behaviour. We still want cached32_node to only move upwards, but we should reset the allocation size if *any* 32-bit space has become available.

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.
