[dpdk-stable] patch 'net/netvsc: fix stale value after free' has been queued to LTS release 18.11.11

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.11

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/10/20. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/510aa52a7861e0c6e6853efb40c2f42e7b85466f

Thanks.

Kevin.

Subject: [PATCH] net/netvsc: fix stale value after free

[ upstream commit 0caf5621a4cdaadb40c7686d86bf58dd841057d3 ]

chim_index could potentially be used in other hn_txdesc when re-allocated.
Mark it as invalid to prevent stale value being used.

Fixes: cc0251813277 ("net/netvsc: split send buffers from Tx descriptors")
