A fix is available — apply it.

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

ext4: filesystems without casefold feature cannot be mounted with siphash

When mounting the ext4 filesystem, if the default hash version is set to DX_HASH_SIPHASH but the casefold feature is not set, exit the mounting.
