CVE-2022-49406
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: Fix potential deadlock in blk_ia_range_sysfs_show()
When being read, a sysfs attribute is already protected against removal with the kobject node active reference counter. As a result, in blk_ia_range_sysfs_show(), there is no need to take the queue sysfs lock when reading the value of a range attribute. Using the queue sysfs lock in this function creates a potential deadlock situation with the disk removal, something that a lockdep signals with a splat when the device is removed:
Solve this by removing the mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock() calls from blk_ia_range_sysfs_show().
