kernel: nfsd: move init of percpu reply_cache_stats counters back to nfsd_init_net

A flaw was identified in the NFS server nfsd implementation in the Linux kernel where the initialization of the per-CPU replycachestats counters was relocated incorrectly in the code path. This change can lead to use of uninitialized per-CPU statistical counters during NFS request handling when t...

Kernel: x86/mm: a per-cpu entry area leak was identified through the init_cea_offsets function when prefetchnta and prefetcht2 instructions being used for the per-cpu entry area mapping to the user space

A possible unauthorized memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's cpuentryarea mapping of X86 CPU data to memory, where a user may guess the location of exception stacks or other important data. Based on the previous CVE-2023-0597, the 'Randomize per-cpu entry area' feature was implement...
