Jens Axboe 749b5e65ab io_uring/filetable: clamp alloc_hint to the configured alloc range 
[ Upstream commit a6bded921e ]

Explicit fixed file install/remove operations on slots outside the
configured alloc range can corrupt alloc_hint via io_file_bitmap_set()
and io_file_bitmap_clear(), which unconditionally update alloc_hint to
the bit position. This causes subsequent auto-allocations to fall
outside the configured range.

For example, if the alloc range is [10, 20) and a file is removed at
slot 2, alloc_hint gets set to 2. The next auto-alloc then starts
searching from slot 2, potentially returning a slot below the range.

Fix this by clamping alloc_hint to [file_alloc_start, file_alloc_end)
at the top of io_file_bitmap_get() before starting the search.

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.
