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

regmap: Fix possible double-free in regcache_rbtree_exit()

In regcache_rbtree_insert_to_block(), when ‘present’ realloc failed,
the ‘blk’ which is supposed to assign to ‘rbnode->block’ will be freed,
so ‘rbnode->block’ points a freed memory, in the error handling path of
regcache_rbtree_init(), ‘rbnode->block’ will be freed again in
regcache_rbtree_exit(), KASAN will report double-free as follows:

BUG: KASAN: double-free or invalid-free in kfree+0xce/0x390
Call Trace:
slab_free_freelist_hook+0x10d/0x240

really_probe+0x285/0xc30

To fix this, moving up the assignment of rbnode->block to immediately after
the reallocation has succeeded so that the data structure stays valid even
if the second reallocation fails.
