[PATCH 4.9 095/101] vfio: Clear the caps->buf to NULL after free

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 23 2022 - 04:36:53 EST


From: Schspa Shi <schspa@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 6641085e8d7b3f061911517f79a2a15a0a21b97b ]

On buffer resize failure, vfio_info_cap_add() will free the buffer,
report zero for the size, and return -ENOMEM. As additional
hardening, also clear the buffer pointer to prevent any chance of a
double free.
