CVE-2025-68823

CVE-2025-68823: Linux kernel ublk deadlock when reading partition table. If a process (e.g., udev) opens a ublk block device to read the partition table via bdev_open(), a deadlock can occur because blkdev_release() re-acquires disk->open_mutex in the same context. The fix disables bottom halv...
