  • Drivers that register a ->fault handler, but do not range-check the
    offset argument, must set VM_DONTEXPAND in the vm_flags in order to
    prevent an expanding mremap from overflowing the resource.

    I've audited the tree and attempted to fix these problems (usually by
    adding VM_DONTEXPAND where it is not obvious).
