When scheduling work item to read page we need to pass down the proper bvec struct which points to the page to read into. Before this patch it uses a randomly initialized bvec (only if PAGE_SIZE != 4096) which is wrong. Note that without this patch on arch/kernel where PAGE_SIZE != 4096 userspace could read random memory through a zram block device (thought userspace probably would have no control on the address being read).

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.
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.
