Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
1b7e816fc8
To properly clear the slab on free with slab_want_init_on_free, we walk
the list of free objects using get_freepointer/set_freepointer.
The value we get from get_freepointer may not be valid. This isn't an
issue since an actual value will get written later but this means
there's a chance of triggering a bug if we use this value with
set_freepointer:

Fix this by ensuring the value we set with set_freepointer is either NULL
or another value in the chain.

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
