[ Upstream commit ffefb6f4d6ad699a2b5484241bc46745a53235d0 ]
Our chosen ic_dev may be anywhere in our list of ic_devs, and we may free it before attempting to close others. When we compare d->dev and ic_dev->dev, we're potentially dereferencing memory returned to the allocator. This causes KASAN to scream for each subsequent ic_dev we check.
As there's a 1-1 mapping between ic_devs and netdevs, we can instead compare d and ic_dev directly, which implicitly handles the !ic_dev case, and avoids the use-after-free. The ic_dev pointer may be stale, but we will not dereference it.
Original splat:
