    In the cpu_map_update_elem flow, when kthread_stop is called before
    calling the threadfn of rcpu->kthread, since the KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP bit
    of kthread has been set by kthread_stop, the threadfn of rcpu->kthread
    will never be executed, and rcpu->refcnt will never be 0, which will
    lead to the allocated rcpu, rcpu->queue and rcpu->queue->queue cannot be
    released.

    Calling kthread_stop before executing kthread's threadfn will return
    -EINTR. We can complete the release of memory resources in this state.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
