If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 057cc6356166f2b39b8b61b8887b8ef10fbb25ca Author: Li Nan <linan122@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Sep 4 11:13:48 2024 +0800 ublk_drv: fix NULL pointer dereference in ublk_ctrl_start_recovery() [ Upstream commit e58f5142f88320a5b1449f96a146f2f24615c5c7 ] When two UBLK_CMD_START_USER_RECOVERY commands are submitted, the first one sets 'ubq->ubq_daemon' to NULL, and the second one triggers WARN in ublk_queue_reinit() and subsequently a NULL pointer dereference issue. Fix it by adding the check in ublk_ctrl_start_recovery() and return immediately in case of zero 'ub->nr_queues_ready'.
