[PATCH] scsi: target: core: Fix null-ptr-deref in target_alloc_device()
From: Wang Hai
Date: Fri Oct 11 2024 - 07:35:21 EST
There is a null-ptr-deref issue reported by kasan:
BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in target_alloc_device+0xbc4/0xbe0 [target_core_mod]

entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e
In target_alloc_device(), if allocing memory for dev queues fails,
then dev will be freed by dev->transport->free_device(), but
dev->transport is not initialized at that time, which will lead to a
null pointer reference problem.
Fixing this bug by freeing dev with hba->backend->ops->free_device().
Fixes: 1526d9f10c61 ("scsi: target: Make state_list per CPU")
