Subject: mm: zswap: fix crypto_free_acomp deadlock in zswap_cpu_comp_dead
Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2025 16:53:58 +0800
Call crypto_free_acomp outside of the mutex in zswap_cpu_comp_dead() as
otherwise this could deadlock as the allocation path may lead back into
zswap while holding the same lock. Zap the pointers to acomp and buffer
after freeing.
Also move the NULL check on acomp_ctx so that it takes place before
the mutex dereference.

Fixes: 12dcb0ef5406 ("mm: zswap: properly synchronize freeing resources during CPU hotunplug")
