In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/dasd: Fix potential memleak in dasd_eckd_init()
`dasd_reserve_req` is allocated before `dasd_vol_info_req`, and it
also needs to be freed before the error returns, just like the other
cases in this function.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: remove a BUG_ON in ext4_mb_release_group_pa()
If a malicious fuzzer overwrites the ext4 superblock while it is
mounted such that the s_first_data_block is set to a very large
number, the calculation of the block group can underflow, and trigger
a BUG_ON check. Change this to be an ext4_warning so that we don't
crash the kernel.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix leaking uninitialized memory in fast-commit journal
When space at the end of fast-commit journal blocks is unused, make sure
to zero it out so that uninitialized memory is not leaked to disk.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/binfmt_elf: Fix memory leak in load_elf_binary()
There is a memory leak reported by kmemleak:

If "interp_elf_ex" fails to allocate memory in load_elf_binary(),
the program will take the "out_free_ph" error handing path,
resulting in "interpreter" file resource is not released.
Fix it by adding an error handing path "out_free_file", which will
release the file resource when "interp_elf_ex" failed to allocate
memory.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: lpfc: Fix null ndlp ptr dereference in abnormal exit path for GFT_ID
An error case exit from lpfc_cmpl_ct_cmd_gft_id() results in a call to
lpfc_nlp_put() with a null pointer to a nodelist structure.
Changed lpfc_cmpl_ct_cmd_gft_id() to initialize nodelist pointer upon
entry.

RIP: 0033:0x7f333fe9b1b7
The reason is that the cros_usbpd_notify_init() does not check the return
value of platform_driver_register(), and the cros_usbpd_notify can
install successfully even if platform_driver_register() failed.
Fix by checking the return value of platform_driver_register() and
unregister cros_usbpd_notify_plat_driver when it failed.

MIPS: vpe-mt: fix possible memory leak while module exiting
Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's
bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically,
it need be freed when module exiting, call put_device() to give up
reference, so that it can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the
refcount hit to 0. The vpe_device is static, so remove kfree() from
vpe_device_release().

powerpc/52xx: Fix a resource leak in an error handling path
The error handling path of mpc52xx_lpbfifo_probe() has a request_irq()
that is not balanced by a corresponding free_irq().
Add the missing call, as already done in the remove function.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mt76: mt7915: Fix PCI device refcount leak in mt7915_pci_init_hif2()
As comment of pci_get_device() says, it returns a pci_device with its
refcount increased. We need to call pci_dev_put() to decrease the
refcount. Save the return value of pci_get_device() and call
pci_dev_put() to decrease the refcount.
