CVE-2026-43071

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

dcache: Limit the minimal number of bucket to two

There is an OOB read problem on dentry_hashtable when user sets
'dhash_entries=1':

There will be only one bucket in dentry_hashtable when dhash_entries is
set as one, and d_hash_shift is calculated as 32 by dcache_init(). Then,
following process will access more than one buckets(which memory region
is not allocated) in dentry_hashtable:
d_lookup
b = d_hash(hash)
dentry_hashtable + ((u32)hashlen >> d_hash_shift)
// The C standard defines the behavior of right shift amounts
// exceeding the bit width of the operand as undefined. The
// result of '(u32)hashlen >> d_hash_shift' becomes 'hashlen',
// so 'b' will point to an unallocated memory region.
hlist_bl_for_each_entry_rcu(b)
hlist_bl_first_rcu(head)
h->first // read OOB!

Fix it by limiting the minimal number of dentry_hashtable bucket to two,
so that 'd_hash_shift' won't exceeds the bit width of type u32.
