f2fs: fix to avoid racing on fsync_entry_slab by multi filesystem instances
As syzbot reported, there is an use-after-free issue during f2fs recovery:

The root cause is multi f2fs filesystem instances can race on accessing
global fsync_entry_slab pointer, result in use-after-free issue of slab
cache, fixes to init/destroy this slab cache only once during module
init/destroy procedure to avoid this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: core: Fix bad pointer dereference when ehandler kthread is invalid
Commit 66a834d09293 ("scsi: core: Fix error handling of scsi_host_alloc()")
changed the allocation logic to call put_device() to perform host cleanup
with the assumption that IDA removal and stopping the kthread would
properly be performed in scsi_host_dev_release(). However, in the unlikely
case that the error handler thread fails to spawn, shost->ehandler is set
to ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM).
The error handler cleanup code in scsi_host_dev_release() will call
kthread_stop() if shost->ehandler != NULL which will always be the case
whether the kthread was successfully spawned or not. In the case that it
failed to spawn this has the nasty side effect of trying to dereference an
invalid pointer when kthread_stop() is called. The following splat provides
an example of this behavior in the wild:
scsi host11: error handler thread failed to spawn, error = -4

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbmem: Do not delete the mode that is still in use
The execution of fb_delete_videomode() is not based on the result of the
previous fbcon_mode_deleted(). As a result, the mode is directly deleted,
regardless of whether it is still in use, which may cause UAF.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: v4l2-core: explicitly clear ioctl input data
As seen from a recent syzbot bug report, mistakes in the compat ioctl
implementation can lead to uninitialized kernel stack data getting used
as input for driver ioctl handlers.
The reported bug is now fixed, but it's possible that other related
bugs are still present or get added in the future. As the drivers need
to check user input already, the possible impact is fairly low, but it
might still cause an information leak.
To be on the safe side, always clear the entire ioctl buffer before
calling the conversion handler functions that are meant to initialize
them.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix possible UAF when remounting r/o a mmp-protected file system
After commit 618f003199c6 ("ext4: fix memory leak in
ext4_fill_super"), after the file system is remounted read-only, there
is a race where the kmmpd thread can exit, causing sbi->s_mmp_tsk to
point at freed memory, which the call to ext4_stop_mmpd() can trip
over.
Fix this by only allowing kmmpd() to exit when it is stopped via
ext4_stop_mmpd().

dm btree remove: assign new_root only when removal succeeds
remove_raw() in dm_btree_remove() may fail due to IO read error
(e.g. read the content of origin block fails during shadowing),
and the value of shadow_spine::root is uninitialized, but
the uninitialized value is still assign to new_root in the
end of dm_btree_remove().
For dm-thin, the value of pmd->details_root or pmd->root will become
an uninitialized value, so if trying to read details_info tree again
out-of-bound memory may occur as showed below:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/bpf: Fix detecting BPF atomic instructions
Commit 91c960b0056672 ("bpf: Rename BPF_XADD and prepare to encode other
atomics in .imm") converted BPF_XADD to BPF_ATOMIC and added a way to
distinguish instructions based on the immediate field. Existing JIT
implementations were updated to check for the immediate field and to
reject programs utilizing anything more than BPF_ADD (such as BPF_FETCH)
in the immediate field.
However, the check added to powerpc64 JIT did not look at the correct
BPF instruction. Due to this, such programs would be accepted and
incorrectly JIT'ed resulting in soft lockups, as seen with the atomic
bounds test. Fix this by looking at the correct immediate value.
