      cpu/hotplug: Reset node state after operation · 1f7c70d6
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      The recent rework of the cpu hotplug internals changed the usage of the per
      cpu state->node field, but missed to clean it up after usage.
      
      So subsequent hotplug operations use the stale pointer from a previous
      operation and hand it into the callback functions. The callbacks then
      dereference a pointer which either belongs to a different facility or
      points to freed and potentially reused memory. In either case data
      corruption and crashes are the obvious consequence.
      
      Reset the node and the last pointers in the per cpu state to NULL after the
      operation which set them has completed.
      
      Fixes: 96abb968 ("smp/hotplug: Allow external multi-instance rollback")
