DEBIAN-CVE-2024-44976

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ata: patamacio: Fix DMA table overflow Kolbjørn and Jonáš reported that their 32-bit PowerMacs were crashing in pata-macio since commit 09fe2bfa6b83 ("ata: patamacio: Fix maxsegmentsize with PAGESIZE == 64K"). For example: kernel BUG at drivers/ata/patamacio.c:544! Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1] BE PAGESIZE=4K MMU=Hash SMP NRCPUS=2 DEBUGPAGEALLOC PowerMac ...

However with a sufficiently large request, the splitting logic causes each sg to be split into two commands in the DMA table, leading to overflow of the DMA table, triggering the BUGON(). With default settings the bug doesn't trigger, because the request size is limited by maxsectorskb == 1280, however maxsectorskb can be increased, and apparently some distros do that by default using udev rules. Fix the bug for 4KB kernels by reverting to the old maxsegmentsize. For 64KB kernels the sgtablesize needs to be halved, to allow for the possibility that each sg will be split into two.
