From: Riyan Dhiman <riyandhiman14@gmail.com> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.227 commit 4bc4272e2506941c3f3d4fb8b0c659ee814dcf6f category: bugifx bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IAYPJH CVE: CVE-2024-47705 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 26e197b7f9240a4ac301dd0ad520c0c697c2ea7d ] The blk_add_partition() function initially used a single if-condition (IS_ERR(part)) to check for errors when adding a partition. This was modified to handle the specific case of -ENXIO separately, allowing the function to proceed without logging the error in this case. However, this change unintentionally left a path where md_autodetect_dev() could be called without confirming that part is a valid pointer. This commit separates the error handling logic by splitting the initial if-condition, improving code readability and handling specific error scenarios explicitly. The function now distinguishes the general error case from -ENXIO without altering the existing behavior of md_autodetect_dev() calls.
