SUSE: CVE-2023-52808: SUSE Linux Security Advisory

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

scsi: hisi_sas: Set debugfs_dir pointer to NULL after removing debugfs

If init debugfs failed during device registration due to memory allocation
failure, debugfs_remove_recursive() is called, after which debugfs_dir is
not set to NULL. debugfs_remove_recursive() will be called again during
device removal. As a result, illegal pointer is accessed.

[ 1665.467244] hisi_sas_v3_hw 0000:b4:02.0: failed to init debugfs!

To fix this, set debugfs_dir to NULL after debugfs_remove_recursive().
