Linux kernel source tree

When restoring a page, no sanity checks are done to make sure the page actually came from a kexec handover. The caller is trusted to pass in the right address. If the caller has a bug and passes in a wrong address, an in-use page might be "restored" and returned, causing all sorts of memory corruption. Harden the page restore logic by stashing in a magic number in page->private along with the order. If the magic number does not match, the page won't be touched. page->private is an unsigned long. The union kho_page_info splits it into two parts, with one holding the order and the other holding the magic number.

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 reStructuredText 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.
