From: Lin Ma <linma@xxxxxxxxxx> [ upstream commit 12ad3d2d6c5b0131a6052de91360849e3e154846 ] There is an interesting race condition of poll_refs which could result in a NULL pointer dereference. The crash trace is like: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f] CPU: 0 PID: 30781 Comm: syz-executor.2 Not tainted 6.0.0-g493ffd6605b2 #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.13.0-1ubuntu1.1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:io_poll_remove_entry io_uring/poll.c:154 [inline] RIP: 0010:io_poll_remove_entries+0x171/0x5b4 io_uring/poll.c:190 Code: ...

Therefore, this patch simply adds another AND operation to make sure the loop will stop if it finds the poll_refs is exactly equal to IO_POLL_CANCEL_FLAG. Since io_poll_cancel_req() grabs ownership and will finally make its way to io_req_complete_failed(), the req will be reclaimed as expected.
