In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: block: fix GenDisk cleanup paths
GenDiskBuilder::build() still has fallible work after
__blk_mq_alloc_disk(), but its error path only recovers the
foreign queue data. That leaks the temporary gendisk and
request_queue until later teardown. If the caller moved the last
Arc<TagSet\<T>> into build(), the leaked queue can retain blk-mq
state after the tag set is dropped.
Fix the pre-registration failure path by dropping the temporary
gendisk reference with put_disk() before recovering queue_data,
so disk_release() can tear down the owned queue.
Also pair GenDisk::drop() with put_disk() after del_gendisk().
Once a Rust GenDisk has been added with device_add_disk(),
del_gendisk() only unregisters it; the final gendisk reference
still has to be dropped to complete the release path.
