CVE-2022-49901
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-mq: Fix kmemleak in blk_mq_init_allocated_queue
There is a kmemleak caused by modprobe null_blk.ko
That is because q->ma_ops is set to NULL before blk_release_queue is called.
[1]: blk_mq_alloc_and_init_hctx failed at i != 0. [2]: The hctxs allocated by [1] are moved to q->unused_hctx_list and will be cleaned up in blk_mq_release. [3]: q->nr_hw_queues is 0. [4]: Set q->mq_ops to NULL. [5]: queue_is_mq returns false due to [4]. And blk_mq_release will not be called. The hctxs in q->unused_hctx_list are leaked.
To fix it, call blk_release_queue in exception path.
