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

ibmvnic: Use kernel helpers for hex dumps

Previously, when the driver was printing hex dumps, the buffer was cast
to an 8 byte long and printed using string formatters. If the buffer
size was not a multiple of 8 then a read buffer overflow was possible.

Therefore, create a new ibmvnic function that loops over a buffer and
calls hex_dump_to_buffer instead.

This patch address KASAN reports like the one below:
  ibmvnic 30000003 env3: Login Buffer:
