What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: mpi3mr: Fix possible crash when setting up bsg fails

If bsg_setup_queue() fails, the bsg_queue is assigned a non-NULL value.

Consequently, in mpi3mr_bsg_exit(), the condition "if(!mrioc->bsg_queue)"

will not be satisfied, preventing execution from entering

bsg_remove_queue(), which could lead to the following crash:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000041c
