[BUG] udf: possible use-after-free in udf_close_lvid

Hi,


I am reporting that use-after-free in udf_close_lvid appears to remain
reproducible with a migrated syzkaller reproducer on Linux 7.2-rc3. The
tested HEAD commit is a13c140cc289c0b7b3770bce5b3ad42ab35074aa.


The reproducer mounts and unmounts a crafted UDF image, reaching
udf_put_super() and udf_close_lvid() during superblock teardown.


The target run faults in udf_close_lvid(), while the structurally matching
archived report identifies a use-after-free write in the same function and
teardown path.


This looks like lifetime or teardown ordering around the logical volume
integrity descriptor, allowing udf_close_lvid() to access storage that has
already been released.
