In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Fix NULL-ptr-deref in rxe_qp_do_cleanup() when socket create failed
There is a null-ptr-deref when mount.cifs over rdma:
BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in rxe_qp_do_cleanup+0x2f3/0x360 [rdma_rxe]
Read of size 8 at addr 0000000000000018 by task mount.cifs/3046
CPU: 2 PID: 3046 Comm: mount.cifs Not tainted 6.1.0-rc5+ #62
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-1.fc3

The root cause of the issue is the socket create failed in
rxe_qp_init_req().
So move the reset rxe_qp_do_cleanup() after the NULL ptr check.
