In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Fix merge preference rule failure condition
syzbot reported a lock held when returning to userspace[1]. This is because if argc is less than 0 and the function returns directly, the held inode lock is not released.
Fix this by store the error in ret and jump to done to clean up instead of returning directly.
[dh: Modified Lizhi Xu's original patch to make it honour the error code from afssplitstring()]
[1] WARNING: lock held when returning to user space!
