CVE-2025-68349: NFSv4/pNFS: Clear NFS_INO_LAYOUTCOMMIT in pnfs_mark_layout_stateid_invalid
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/pNFS: Clear NFSINOLAYOUTCOMMIT in pnfsmarklayoutstateidinvalid
Fixes a crash when layout is null during this call stack:
writeinode - nfs4writeinode - pnfslayoutcommitinode
pnfssetlayoutcommit relies on the lseg refcount to keep the layout around. Need to clear NFSINOLAYOUTCOMMIT otherwise we might attempt to reference a null layout.
