## Overview

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

xfs: fix exchmaps reservation limit check

xfs_exchmaps_estimate_overhead() adds the bmbt and rmapbt
overhead to a local resblks variable, but the final UINT_MAX
check still tests req->resblks.  That is the reservation value
from before the overhead was added.

The computed value is stored back in req->resblks and later passed
to xfs_trans_alloc(), whose block reservation argument is unsigned
int.  Check the computed reservation so the existing limit applies
to the value that will be used.

## Affected

- `linux_kernel >= 6.10, < 6.12.96`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.13, < 6.18.39`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.19, < 7.1.4`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `linux_kernel 7.1.4`
