Title
drm/i915: Fix a memory leak with reused mmap_offset
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/i915: Fix a memory leak with reused mmap_offset drm_vma_node_allow() and drm_vma_node_revoke() should be called in balanced pairs. We call drm_vma_node_allow() once per-file everytime a user calls mmap_offset, but only call drm_vma_node_revoke once per-file on each mmap_offset. As the mmap_offset is reused by the client, the per-file vm_count may remain non-zero and the rbtree leaked. Call drm_vma_node_allow_once() instead to prevent that memory leak.

Se llama a drm_vma_node_allow() una vez por archivo cada vez que un usuario llama a mmap_offset, pero solo se llama a drm_vma_node_revoke una vez por archivo en cada mmap_offset. Dado que el cliente reutiliza mmap_offset, el valor de vm_count por archivo puede ser distinto de cero y el \u00e1rbol rb se filtra. En su lugar, se llama a drm_vma_node_allow_once() para evitar esta fuga de memoria."
