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

RDMA/cma: Fix WARNING in res_to_rt

syzbot reported a WARN_ON(!res->dev) in res_to_rt() triggered via addr_handler() during asynchronous address resolution:

In addr_handler(), cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip() is called to populate id_priv->cma_dev and bind the associated ib_device to id_priv->id.device. If cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip() returns an error (non-zero status), the ID remains unassociated with any RDMA device.

Previously, rdma_restrack_add(&id_priv->res) was invoked unconditionally even when cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip() failed, passing a resource with a NULL dev pointer and triggering the WARN_ON assertion in res_to_rt().

Fix this by only adding the resource to restrack when acquiring the device succeeds.
