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

netfs: Fix oops in write-retry from mis-resetting the subreq iterator

Fix the resetting of the subrequest iterator in netfs_retry_write_stream() to use the iterator-reset function as the iterator may have been shortened by a previous retry. In such a case, the amount of data to be written by the subrequest is not "subreq->len" but "subreq->len - subreq->transferred".

Without this, KASAN may see an error in iov_iter_revert():
