[PATCH 6.19 055/844] smb: client: prevent races in ->query_interfaces()
From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sat Feb 28 2026 - 12:47:57 EST
From: Henrique Carvalho <henrique.carvalho@xxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit c3c06e42e1527716c54f3ad2ced6a034b5f3a489 ]
It was possible for two query interface works to be concurrently trying
to update the interfaces.
Prevent this by checking and updating iface_last_update under
iface_lock.
