When run on a 64-bit system in selftest, the v7s driver may obtain page table with physical addresses larger than 32-bit. Level-2 tables are 1KB and are are allocated with slab, which doesn't accept the GFP_DMA32 flag. Currently map() truncates the address written in the PTE, causing iova_to_phys() or unmap() to access invalid memory. Kasan reports it as a use-after-free. To avoid any nasty surprise, test if the physical address fits in a PTE before returning a new table. 32-bit systems, which are the main users of this page table format, shouldn't see any difference.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
