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

An issue was discovered in mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel before 5.7.11. There is a race condition between certain expand functions (expand_downwards and expand_upwards) and page-table free operations from an munmap call, aka CID-246c320a8cfe.
