And when\nthe probe fails, the private data is never removed from the list. This\nwould cause a second probe to access freed memory.\n\nRemove the unused hook, structures and members, which will prevent the\npotential race condition on the list and its corruption during a second\nprobe when probe fails.\n\ud83d\udccf Published: 2025-03-06T15:54:11.665Z\n\ud83d\udccf Modified: 2025-05-04T10:09:20.322Z\n\ud83d\udd17 References:\n1. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f801e754efa21bd61b3cc15ec7565696165b272f\n2. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1b9cbd8a9ae68b32099fbb03b2d5ffa0c5e0dcc9\n3. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8e2fcc68fbaab3ad9f5671fee2be0956134b740a\n4. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1e39b0486cdb496cdfba3bc89886150e46acf6f4\n5. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/465d01ef6962b82b1f0ad1f3e58b398dbd35c1c1\n6. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/543e3e9f2e9e47ded774c74e680f28a0ca362aee\n7. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/006e803af7408c3fc815b0654fc5ab43d34f0154\n8. https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2fdac64c3c35858aa8ac5caa70b232e03456e120", "creation_timestamp": "2025-05-04T11:19:20.000000Z"}
