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

x86/mm: Fix freeing of PMD-sized vmemmap pages

Commit bf9e4e30f353 ("x86/mm: use pagetable_free()"), switched from freeing non-boot page tables through __free_pages() to pagetable_free().

However, the function is also called to free vmemmap pages.

Given that vmemmap pages are not page tables, already the page_ptdesc(page) is wrong. But worse, pagetable_free() calls:

__free_pages(page, compound_order(page));

Since vmemmap pages are not compound pages (see vmemmap_alloc_block()) -- except for HVO, which doesn't apply here -- only first page of a PMD-sized vmemmap page is freed, leaking the other ones.

Fix it by properly decoupling pagetable and vmemmap freeing. free_pagetable() no longer has to mess with SECTION_INFO, as only the vmemmap is marked like that in register_page_bootmem_memmap().

The indentation in remove_pmd_table() is messed up. Fix that while touching it.

Bootmem info handling will soon be fixed up. For now, handle it similar to free_pagetable(), just avoiding the ifdef.
