CVE-2022-49020
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/9p: Fix a potential socket leak in p9_socket_open
Both p9_fd_create_tcp() and p9_fd_create_unix() will call
p9_socket_open(). If the creation of p9_trans_fd fails,
p9_fd_create_tcp() and p9_fd_create_unix() will return an
error directly instead of releasing the cscoket, which will
result in a socket leak.
This patch adds sock_release() to fix the leak issue.
