Ubuntu: (CVE-2023-53110): linux vulnerability

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

net/smc: fix NULL sndbuf_desc in smc_cdc_tx_handler()

When performing a stress test on SMC-R by rmmod mlx5_ib driver
during the wrk/nginx test, we found that there is a probability
of triggering a panic while terminating all link groups.

This issue dues to the race between smc_smcr_terminate_all()
and smc_buf_create().

smc_smcr_terminate_all

smc_buf_create
/* init */
conn->sndbuf_desc = NULL;
...

__smc_lgr_terminate
smc_conn_kill
smc_close_abort
smc_cdc_get_slot_and_msg_send

__softirqentry_text_start
smc_wr_tx_process_cqe
smc_cdc_tx_handler
READ(conn->sndbuf_desc->len);
/* panic dues to NULL sndbuf_desc */

conn->sndbuf_desc = xxx;

This patch tries to fix the issue by always to check the sndbuf_desc
before send any cdc msg, to make sure that no null pointer is
seen during cqe processing.
