From: Jan Beulich Subject: x86/IRQ: avoid double unlock in map_domain_pirq() Forever since its introduction the main loop in the function dealing with multi-vector MSI had error exit points ("break") with different properties: In one case no IRQ descriptor lock is being held. Nevertheless the subsequent error cleanup path assumed such a lock would uniformly need releasing. Identify the case by setting "desc" to NULL, thus allowing the unlock to be skipped as necessary. This is CVE-2024-31143 / XSA-458.
