Letu Ren fbfe96869b scsi: qedf: Fix a UAF bug in __qedf_probe()
In __qedf_probe(), if qedf->cdev is NULL which means
qed_ops->common->probe() failed, then the program will goto label err1, and
scsi_host_put() will free lport->host pointer. Because the memory qedf
points to is allocated by libfc_host_alloc(), it will be freed by
scsi_host_put(). However, the if statement below label err0 only checks
whether qedf is NULL but doesn't check whether the memory has been freed.
So a UAF bug can occur.

There are two ways to reach the statements below err0. The first one is
described as before, "qedf" should be set to NULL. The second one is goto
"err0" directly. In the latter scenario qedf hasn't been changed and it has
the initial value NULL. As a result the if statement is not reachable in
any situation.

The KASAN logs are as follows:

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
