Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-debug-kvm package and not the kernel-rt-debug-kvm package as distributed by Centos.

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

dmaengine: idxd: fix wq cleanup of WQCFG registers

A pre-release silicon erratum workaround where wq reset does not clear WQCFG registers was leaked into upstream code. Use wq reset command instead of blasting the MMIO region. This also address an issue where we clobber registers in future devices.
