commit 519ea6f1c82fcdc9842908155ae379de47818778 upstream. Currently, the __is_lm_address() check just masks out the top 12 bits of the address, but if they are 0, it still yields a true result. This has as a side effect that virt_addr_valid() returns true even for invalid virtual addresses (e.g. 0x0). Fix the detection checking that it's actually a kernel address starting at PAGE_OFFSET.

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.
