Subject[PATCH 5.4 289/344] bcache: fix use-after-free in register_bcache()
Date
From: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de>

[ Upstream commit ae3cd299919af6eb670d5af0bc9d7ba14086bd8e ]

The patch "bcache: rework error unwinding in register_bcache" introduces
a use-after-free regression in register_bcache(). Here are current code,
2510 out_free_path:
2511 kfree(path);
2512 out_module_put:
2513 module_put(THIS_MODULE);
2514 out:
2515 pr_info("error %s: %s", path, err);
2516 return ret;
If some error happens and the above code path is executed, at line 2511
path is released, but referenced at line 2515. Then KASAN reports a use-
after-free error message.

This patch changes line 2515 in the following way to fix the problem,
2515 pr_info("error %s: %s", path?path:"", err);
