Amazon Linux 2023: CVE-2025-38071: Important priority package update for kernel (Multiple Advisories)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mm: Check return value from memblock_phys_alloc_range()
At least with CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x100000, if there is < 4 MiB of
contiguous free memory available at this point, the kernel will crash
and burn because memblock_phys_alloc_range() returns 0 on failure,
which leads memblock_phys_free() to throw the first 4 MiB of physical
memory to the wolves.
At a minimum it should fail gracefully with a meaningful diagnostic,
but in fact everything seems to work fine without the weird reserve
allocation.
