Re: [PATCH 2/4] x86/resctrl: Fix use-after-free due to inaccurate refcount of rdtgroup

[Xiaochen Shen]

Hi Sasha,

The backporting for v4.14.x stable tree needs some manual tweaking due to
difference code bases:
1. x86/resctrl rename/re-arrange in v5.0 upstream kernel.
2. Code re-arrange in upstream commit 17eafd076291 ("x86/intel_rdt: Split
resource group removal in two").

The backporting for v4.19.x stable tree needs some manual tweaking due to
difference code bases: x86/resctrl rename/re-arrange in v5.0 upstream
kernel.

I will work on the backporting once this patch is merged into upstream.

Thank you.
