6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 2e4b02fad094976763af08fec2c620f4f8edd9ae ] The kref_put() function will call nport->release if the refcount drops to zero. The nport->release release function is _efc_nport_free() which frees "nport". But then we dereference "nport" on the next line which is a use after free. Re-order these lines to avoid the use after free.
