In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to avoid use-after-free in f2fs_stop_gc_thread()
syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below:

The root cause is below race condition, it may cause use-after-free
issue in sbi->gc_th pointer.
- remount
- f2fs_remount
- f2fs_stop_gc_thread
- kfree(gc_th)
- f2fs_ioc_shutdown
- f2fs_do_shutdown
- f2fs_stop_gc_thread
- kthread_stop(gc_th->f2fs_gc_task)
: sbi->gc_thread = NULL;
We will call f2fs_do_shutdown() in two paths:
- for f2fs_ioc_shutdown() path, we should grab sb->s_umount semaphore
for fixing.
- for f2fs_shutdown() path, it's safe since caller has already grabbed
sb->s_umount semaphore.
