CVE-2021-38205: net: xilinx_emaclite: Do not print real IOMEM pointer

xemaclite_of_probe() in drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_emaclite.c
leaks kernel memory layout.

Fixed status

mainline: [d0d62baa7f505bd4c59cd169692ff07ec49dde37]
stable/5.13: [8722275b41d5127048e1422a8a1b6370b4878533]

This affects our kernels (I looked at 5.10.57 and 4.4.277). On one
hand we could ask for backport, on the other... I'm not sure it is
serious enough to warrant any action.

I think this vulnerability seems to be low priority because an
attacker needs another vulnerability to abuse this vulnerability.
However, it would be nice to backport the patch too.

So I tried to apply the patch to 4.4, but it rejects, because types
changed in the meantime.

In particular eccd5403814b4e762e270ef0464bb86fb217b1bf and
18af77c50fede5b3fc22aa9f0a9b255a5c5285c9 change the printk.

It seems we are actually using the driver in one of the configs:

./4.4.y-cip/arm/toshiba_zynq.sources:drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_emaclite.c

Patch for 4.4 should look like this:

diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_emaclite.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_emaclite.c

Thank you for your work!
This patch looks good to me.

Best regards,
