Subject: CVE-2021-47462: mm/mempolicy: do not allow illegal MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING | MPOL_LOCAL in mbind()

Description
===========

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

mm/mempolicy: do not allow illegal MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING | MPOL_LOCAL in mbind()

syzbot reported access to unitialized memory in mbind() [1]

Issue came with commit bda420b98505 ("numa balancing: migrate on fault
among multiple bound nodes")

This commit added a new bit in MPOL_MODE_FLAGS, but only checked valid
combination (MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING can only be used with MPOL_BIND) in
do_set_mempolicy()

This patch moves the check in sanitize_mpol_flags() so that it is also
used by mbind()

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
	https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9ee4e9ae98f1f262d6fae0d266cfdf3ba2c321d9
