Using device_find_child() to lookup the proper device to destroy
causes an unbalance in device refcount, since device_find_child()
calls an implicit get_device() to increment the device's reference
count before returning the pointer. cxl_port_find_switch_decoder()
directly converts this pointer to a cxl_decoder and returns it without
releasing the reference properly. We should call put_device() to
decrement reference count.
As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop
the reference with put_device() after use'.
Found by code review.

Subject: [PATCH] ksmbd: fix a mount write count leak in
ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_locked()
If the call of ksmbd_vfs_lock_parent() fails, we drop the parent_path
references and return an error. We need to drop the write access we
just got on parent_path->mnt before we drop the mount reference - callers
assume that ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_locked() returns with mount write
access grabbed if and only if it has returned 0.

Subject: [PATCH] smb: server: make use of rdma_destroy_qp()
The qp is created by rdma_create_qp() as t->cm_id->qp
and t->qp is just a shortcut.
rdma_destroy_qp() also calls ib_destroy_qp(cm_id->qp) internally,
but it is protected by a mutex, clears the cm_id and also calls
trace_cm_qp_destroy().
This should make the tracing more useful as both
rdma_create_qp() and rdma_destroy_qp() are traces and it makes
the code look more sane as functions from the same layer are used
for the specific qp object.
trace-cmd stream -e rdma_cma:cm_qp_create -e rdma_cma:cm_qp_destroy
shows this now while doing a mount and unmount from a client:
<...>-80 [002] 378.514182: cm_qp_create: cm.id=1 src=172.31.9.167:5445 dst=172.31.9.166:37113 tos=0 pd.id=0 qp_type=RC send_wr=867 recv_wr=255 qp_num=1 rc=0

2.50.1
Starting with Rust 1.89.0 (expected 2025-08-07), the Rust compiler fails
to build the `rusttest` target due to undefined references such as:
kernel...-cgu.0:(.text....+0x116): undefined reference to
`rust_helper_kunit_get_current_test'
Moreover, tooling like `modpost` gets confused:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/gpu/drm/nova/nova.o
ERROR: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/gpu/nova-core/nova_core.o
The reason behind both issues is that the Rust compiler will now [1]
treat `#[used]` as `#[used(linker)]` instead of `#[used(compiler)]`
for our targets. This means that the retain section flag (`R`,
`SHF_GNU_RETAIN`) will be used and that they will be marked as `unique`
too, with different IDs. In turn, that means we end up with undefined
references that did not get discarded in `rusttest` and that multiple
`.modinfo` sections are generated, which confuse tooling like `modpost`
because they only expect one.
Thus start using `#[used(compiler)]` to keep the previous behavior
and to be explicit about what we want. Sadly, it is an unstable feature
(`used_with_arg`) [2] -- we will talk to upstream Rust about it. The good
news is that it has been available for a long time (Rust >= 1.60) [3].
The changes should also be fine for previous Rust versions, since they
behave the same way as before [4].
Alternatively, we could use `#[no_mangle]` or `#[export_name = ...]`
since those still behave like `#[used(compiler)]`, but of course it is
not really what we want to express, and it requires other changes to
avoid symbol conflicts.

Now relocate_new_kernel_size is a .long value, which means 32bit, so its
high 32bit is undefined. This causes memcpy((void *)reboot_code_buffer,
relocate_new_kernel, relocate_new_kernel_size) in machine_kexec_prepare()
access out of range memories in some cases, and then end up with an ADE
exception.
So make relocate_new_kernel_size be a .quad value, which means 64bit, to
avoid such errors.

Subject: [PATCH] kasan: remove kasan_find_vm_area() to prevent possible
deadlock
find_vm_area() couldn't be called in atomic_context. If find_vm_area() is
called to reports vm area information, kasan can trigger deadlock like:
CPU0 CPU1
vmalloc();
alloc_vmap_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock)
spin_lock_bh(&some_lock);
<interrupt occurs>
<in softirq>
spin_lock(&some_lock);
<access invalid address>
kasan_report();
print_report();
print_address_description();
kasan_find_vm_area();
find_vm_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock) // deadlock!
To prevent possible deadlock while kasan reports, remove kasan_find_vm_area().

Subject: [PATCH] kasan: remove kasan_find_vm_area() to prevent possible
deadlock
find_vm_area() couldn't be called in atomic_context. If find_vm_area() is
called to reports vm area information, kasan can trigger deadlock like:
CPU0 CPU1
vmalloc();
alloc_vmap_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock)
spin_lock_bh(&some_lock);
<interrupt occurs>
<in softirq>
spin_lock(&some_lock);
<access invalid address>
kasan_report();
print_report();
print_address_description();
kasan_find_vm_area();
find_vm_area();
spin_lock(&vn->busy.lock) // deadlock!
To prevent possible deadlock while kasan reports, remove kasan_find_vm_area().
