Re: [PATCH v5 02/17] kexec: Record allocated CMA pages to fix release size mismatch

[sashiko-bot@kernel.org]

> The CMA pages allocated for a kexec segment are released using the
> segment's memsz to calculate the number of pages. However, some
> architecture loaders modify the segment's memsz after allocation
> (e.g. arm64 subtracts text_offset), causing the release function to
> free fewer pages than were originally allocated, leaking the remaining
> CMA pages.
> 
> Add a per-segment `segment_cma_pages` array to store the number of
> pages actually allocated from CMA. Populate it during
> kexec_add_buffer() using the aligned memsz, and use it in
> kimage_free_cma() to accurately release all allocated pages.
> 
> This avoids relying on the potentially modified segment->memsz and
> prevents silent CMA memory leaks.
