Backport of a similar change from commit 5ac9b4e935df ("lib/buildid:
Handle memfd_secret() files in build_id_parse()") to address an issue
where accessing secret memfd contents through build_id_parse() would
trigger faults.
Original report and repro can be found in [0].
[0] https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/ZwyG8Uro%2FSyTXAni@ly-workstation/
This repro will cause BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request in
build_id_parse in 5.15/6.1/6.6.
Some other discussions can be found in [1].

Please redo this against a current kernel? build_id_parse() has
changed a lot.

stable/linux-6.13.y and stable/linux-6.12.y has commit 5ac9b4e935df
("lib/buildid: Handle memfd_secret() files in build_id_parse()").
stable/linux-5.10.y and stable/linux-5.4.y do not have memfd_secret(2) feature,
so this patch is not needed.

hi,
so this patch is meant for one of 5.15/6.1/6.6?
if so you need to send it separately and add that to the subject,
please check Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst
and you can check other stable kernel patches on the mailing list
like [1][2]
thanks,
jirka
