stable inclusion
from stable-v4.19.237
commit d14193111c436fc5de33206c67c7afd45c730099
category: bugfix
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I51YBN


CVE: CVE-2022-28356

-------------------------------------------------

commit 764f4eb6846f5475f1244767d24d25dd86528a4a upstream.

Whenever llc_ui_bind() and/or llc_ui_autobind()
took a reference on a netdevice but subsequently fail,
they must properly release their reference
or risk the infamous message from unregister_netdevice()
at device dismantle.

unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 3
