CVE-2026-93233

EUVD-2026-86238
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/nouveau/dmem: fix callocated underflow on large folio split

nouveau_dmem_folio_free() drops chunk->callocated once per freed folio,
while a large (compound) device-private folio is only counted once when
it is allocated.  When such a folio is split, the mm core invokes
->folio_split() (nouveau_dmem_folio_split()) once for each new
sub-folio, but the hook only fixes up the sub-folio metadata and leaves
chunk->callocated unchanged.

Each resulting sub-folio is later freed separately, so after a split
the single allocation (+1) is met by N frees (-N), leaving
chunk->callocated short by N-1.  On the first split/free cycle it
underflows: WARN_ON(!chunk->callocated) fires, the unsigned counter
wraps and never returns to zero, so the chunk can no longer be
reclaimed (nouveau_dmem_fini() also warns on the leaked count).

Account for the new sub-folio in the split hook, under the same lock as
nouveau_dmem_folio_free(), so the count stays balanced.
