Once the qp has been flushed, it cannot be flushed again. The user qp flush logic wasn't enforcing it however. The bug can cause touch-after-free crashes like: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x000001ec Faulting instruction address: 0xc008000016069100 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] ...
