Summary
IB/hfi1: Correctly move list in sc_disable()
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

IB/hfi1: Correctly move list in sc_disable()

Commit 13bac861952a ("IB/hfi1: Fix abba locking issue with sc_disable()") incorrectly tries to move a list from one list head to another. The result is a kernel crash.

The crash is triggered when a link goes down and there are waiters for a send to complete. The following signature is seen:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030 [...] Call Trace: scdisable+0x1ba/0x240 [hfi1] piofreeze+0x3d/0x60 [hfi1] handlefreeze+0x27/0x1b0 [hfi1] processonework+0x1b0/0x380 ? processonework+0x380/0x380 workerthread+0x30/0x360 ? processonework+0x380/0x380 kthread+0xd7/0x100 ? kthreadcompleteandexit+0x20/0x20 retfrom_fork+0x1f/0x30

The fix is to use the correct call to move the list.
