In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gfs2:
Fix use-after-free in gfs2_glock_shrink_scan The GLF_LRU flag is checked
under lru_lock in gfs2_glock_remove_from_lru() to remove the glock from the
lru list in __gfs2_glock_put(). On the shrink scan path, the same flag is
cleared under lru_lock but because of cond_resched_lock(&lru_lock) in
gfs2_dispose_glock_lru(), progress on the put side can be made without
deleting the glock from the lru list. Keep GLF_LRU across the race window
opened by cond_resched_lock(&lru_lock) to ensure correct behavior on both
sides - clear GLF_LRU after list_del under lru_lock.
