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

arm64: hibernate: Fix level3 translation fault in swsusp_save()

On arm64 machines, swsusp_save() faults if it attempts to access
MEMBLOCK_NOMAP memory ranges. This can be reproduced in QEMU using UEFI
when booting with rodata=off debug_pagealloc=off and CONFIG_KFENCE=n:
