__bio_for_each_segment assumes that the first struct bio_vec argument
doesn't change - it calls "bio_advance_iter_single((bio), &(iter),
(bvl).bv_len)" to advance the iterator. Unfortunately, the dm-integrity
code changes the bio_vec with "bv.bv_len -= pos". When this code path
is taken, the iterator would be out of sync and dm-integrity would
report errors. This happens if the machine is out of memory and
"kmalloc" fails.
Fix this bug by making a copy of "bv" and changing the copy instead.
Fixes: 7eada909bf ("dm: add integrity target")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
