Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
RDMA/efa: Fix wrong resources deallocation order<br />
<br />
When trying to destroy QP or CQ, we first decrease the refcount and<br />
potentially free memory regions allocated for the object and then<br />
request the device to destroy the object. If the device fails, the<br />
object isn&#39;t fully destroyed so the user/IB core can try to destroy the<br />
object again which will lead to underflow when trying to decrease an<br />
already zeroed refcount.<br />
<br />
Deallocate resources in reverse order of allocating them to safely free<br />
them.
