Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/gic-v3-its: Prevent double free on error
The error handling path in its_vpe_irq_domain_alloc() causes a double free
when its_vpe_init() fails after successfully allocating at least one
interrupt. This happens because its_vpe_irq_domain_free() frees the
interrupts along with the area bitmap and the vprop_page and
its_vpe_irq_domain_alloc() subsequently frees the area bitmap and the
vprop_page again.
Fix this by unconditionally invoking its_vpe_irq_domain_free() which
handles all cases correctly and by removing the bitmap/vprop_page freeing
from its_vpe_irq_domain_alloc().
