In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

exfat: fix random stack corruption after get_block

When get_block is called with a buffer_head allocated on the stack, such
as do_mpage_readpage, stack corruption due to buffer_head UAF may occur in
the following race condition situation.

     <CPU 0>                      <CPU 1>
mpage_read_folio
  <<bh on stack>>
  do_mpage_readpage
    exfat_get_block
      bh_read
        __bh_read
	  get_bh(bh)
          submit_bh
          wait_on_buffer
                              ...
                              end_buffer_read_sync
                                __end_buffer_read_notouch
                                   unlock_buffer
          <<keep going>>
        ...
      ...
    ...
  ...
<<bh is not valid out of mpage_read_folio>>
   .
   .
another_function
  <<variable A on stack>>
                                   put_bh(bh)
                                     atomic_dec(bh->b_count)
  * stack corruption here *

This patch returns -EAGAIN if a folio does not have buffers when bh_read
needs to be called. By doing this, the caller can fallback to functions
like block_read_full_folio(), create a buffer_head in the folio, and then
call get_block again.

Let's do not call bh_read() with on-stack buffer_head.
