CVE-2026-43066
概要

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

ext4: fix iloc.bh leak in ext4_fc_replay_inode() error paths

During code review, Joseph found that ext4_fc_replay_inode() calls
ext4_get_fc_inode_loc() to get the inode location, which holds a
reference to iloc.bh that must be released via brelse().

However, several error paths jump to the 'out' label without
releasing iloc.bh:

- ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() failure
- sync_dirty_buffer() failure
- ext4_mark_inode_used() failure
- ext4_iget() failure

Fix this by introducing an 'out_brelse' label placed just before
the existing 'out' label to ensure iloc.bh is always released.

Additionally, make ext4_fc_replay_inode() propagate errors
properly instead of always returning 0.
