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

rcu: dump vmalloc memory info safely

Currently, for double invoke call_rcu(), will dump rcu_head objects memory
info, if the objects is not allocated from the slab allocator, the
vmalloc_dump_obj() will be invoke and the vmap_area_lock spinlock need to
be held, since the call_rcu() can be invoked in interrupt context,
therefore, there is a possibility of spinlock deadlock scenarios.

And in Preempt-RT kernel, the rcutorture test also trigger the following
lockdep warning:

The previous patch fixes this by using the deadlock-safe best-effort
version of find_vm_area. However, in case of failure print the fact that
the pointer was a vmalloc pointer so that we print at least something.
