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

powerpc/pseries: Fix dtl_access_lock to be a rw_semaphore

The dtl_access_lock needs to be a rw_sempahore, a sleeping lock, because
the code calls kmalloc() while holding it, which can sleep:

  # echo 1 > /proc/powerpc/vcpudispatch_stats
