In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: protect link down work from execute after lgr freed
link down work may be scheduled before lgr freed but execute after lgr freed, which may result in crash. So it is need to hold a reference before shedule link down work, and put the reference after work executed or canceled.
