Amazon Linux AMI 2: CVE-2021-47228: Security patch for kernel (ALASKERNEL-5.10-2022-002)

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

x86/ioremap: Map EFI-reserved memory as encrypted for SEV

Some drivers require memory that is marked as EFI boot services
data. In order for this memory to not be re-used by the kernel
after ExitBootServices(), efi_mem_reserve() is used to preserve it
by inserting a new EFI memory descriptor and marking it with the
EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute.

Under SEV, memory marked with the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute needs to
be mapped encrypted by Linux, otherwise the kernel might crash at boot
like below:

EFI Variables Facility v0.08 2004-May-17

Expand the __ioremap_check_other() function to additionally check for
this other type of boot data reserved at runtime and indicate that it
should be mapped encrypted for an SEV guest.
