Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
procfs: fix possible double mmput() in do_procmap_query()
When user provides incorrectly sized buffer for build ID for PROCMAP_QUERY
we return with -ENAMETOOLONG error. After recent changes this condition
happens later, after we unlocked mmap_lock/per-VMA lock and did mmput(),
so original goto out is now wrong and will double-mmput() mm_struct. Fix
by jumping further to clean up only vm_file and name_buf.
