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

erofs: fix wrong kunmap when using LZMA on HIGHMEM platforms

As the call trace shown, the root cause is kunmap incorrect pages:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

The bug is trivial and should be fixed now. It has no impact on
!HIGHMEM platforms.
