Tuo Li 20597b7229 md/raid5: fix possible null-pointer dereferences in raid5_store_group_thread_cnt() 
[ Upstream commit 7ad6ef91d8 ]

The variable mddev->private is first assigned to conf and then checked:

  conf = mddev->private;
  if (!conf) ...

If conf is NULL, then mddev->private is also NULL. In this case,
null-pointer dereferences can occur when calling raid5_quiesce():

  raid5_quiesce(mddev, true);
  raid5_quiesce(mddev, false);

since mddev->private is assigned to conf again in raid5_quiesce(), and conf
is dereferenced in several places, for example:

  conf->quiesce = 0;
  wake_up(&conf->wait_for_quiescent);

To fix this issue, the function should unlock mddev and return before
invoking raid5_quiesce() when conf is NULL, following the existing pattern
in raid5_change_consistency_policy().

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
