If io_allocate_scq_urings() fails to allocate an sq_* region, it will call io_mem_free() for any previously allocated regions, but leave dangling pointers to these regions in the ctx. Any regions which have not yet been allocated are left NULL. Note that when returning -EOVERFLOW, the previously allocated sq_ring is not freed, which appears to be an unintentional leak. When io_allocate_scq_urings() fails, io_uring_create() will call io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill(), which calls io_mem_free() on all the sq_* regions, assuming the pointers are valid and not NULL. This can result in pages being freed multiple times, which has been observed to corrupt the page state, leading to subsequent fun. This can also result in virt_to_page() on NULL, resulting in the use of bogus page addresses, and yet more subsequent fun. The latter can be detected with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL on arm64. Adding a cleanup path to io_allocate_scq_urings() complicates the logic, so let's leave it to io_ring_ctx_free() to consistently free these pointers, and simplify the io_allocate_scq_urings() error paths. Full splats from before this patch below. Note that the pointer logged by the DEBUG_VIRTUAL "non-linear address" warning has been hashed, and is actually NULL.
