Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/dm-raid: don't call md_reap_sync_thread() directly Currently md_reap_sync_thread() is called from raid_message() directly
without holding 'reconfig_mutex', this is definitely unsafe because
md_reap_sync_thread() can change many fields that is protected by
'reconfig_mutex'. However, hold 'reconfig_mutex' here is still problematic because this
will cause deadlock, for example, commit 130443d60b1b ("md: refactor
idle/frozen_sync_thread() to fix deadlock"). Fix this problem by using stop_sync_thread() to unregister sync_thread,
like md/raid did.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: md/dm-raid: no llame a md_reap_sync_thread() directamente Actualmente, se llama a md_reap_sync_thread() desde raid_message() directamente sin mantener presionado 'reconfig_mutex', esto definitivamente no es seguro porque md_reap_sync_thread( ) puede cambiar muchos campos protegidos por 'reconfig_mutex'. Sin embargo, mantener 'reconfig_mutex' aquí sigue siendo problemático porque esto causará un punto muerto, por ejemplo, confirme 130443d60b1b ("md: refactor idle/frozen_sync_thread() to fix deadlock"). Solucione este problema usando stop_sync_thread() para cancelar el registro de sync_thread, como lo hizo md/raid.

A flaw was found in the `md/dm-raid` subsystem in the Linux kernel. If `md_reap_sync_thread()` is called directly, it could lead to potential misuse or system instability.
