Description

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

gfs2: Fix slab-use-after-free in gfs2_qd_dealloc

In gfs2_put_super(), whether withdrawn or not, the quota should
be cleaned up by gfs2_quota_cleanup().

Otherwise, struct gfs2_sbd will be freed before gfs2_qd_dealloc (rcu
callback) has run for all gfs2_quota_data objects, resulting in
use-after-free.

Also, gfs2_destroy_threads() and gfs2_quota_cleanup() is already called
by gfs2_make_fs_ro(), so in gfs2_put_super(), after calling
gfs2_make_fs_ro(), there is no need to call them again.
