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

    i40e: fix IRQ freeing in i40e_vsi_request_irq_msix error path

    If request_irq() in i40e_vsi_request_irq_msix() fails in an iteration
    later than the first, the error path wants to free the IRQs requested
    so far. However, it uses the wrong dev_id argument for free_irq(), so
    it does not free the IRQs correctly and instead triggers the warning:

     Trying to free already-free IRQ 173

    Use the same dev_id for free_irq() as for request_irq().

    I tested this with inserting code to fail intentionally.

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