[PATCH v2 0/2] zram: fix UAF in zram_bvec_write_partial() and drop dead bio plumbing

From: Cunlong Li

Date: Wed May 27 2026 - 00:49:55 EST


Patch 1 fixes a use-after-free in zram_bvec_write_partial() that
happens on PAGE_SIZE > 4K configurations when a partial write hits a
ZRAM_WB slot.

Patch 2 is a follow-up cleanup that drops the now-unused bio parameter
from zram_bvec_write_partial() and zram_bvec_write(), no functional
change.

Patch 1 is tagged for stable; patch 2 is not.
