An issue exists in the drm/buddy component where requested allocation sizes are rounded up using

These operations can result in a rounded size that exceeds mm->size, subsequently triggering a BUG ON() failure when the calculated order exceeds mm->max order.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
