[PATCH] x86/kexec: avoid double free_page() upon do_kexec_load() failure.

From: Tetsuo Handa
Date: Tue May 01 2018 - 02:36:52 EST


syzbot is reporting crashes after memory allocation failure inside
do_kexec_load() [1]. This is because free_transition_pgtable() is called
by both init_transition_pgtable() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory
allocation failed inside init_transition_pgtable().

Regarding 32bit code, machine_kexec_free_page_tables() is called by both
machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory
allocation failed inside machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables().

Fix this by explicitly setting NULL after free_page().
