commit8063f761cdupstream. The qed_chain data structure was modified in commit1a4a69751f("qed: Chain support for external PBL") to support receiving an external pbl (due to iWARP FW requirements). The pages pointed to by the pbl are allocated in qed_chain_alloc and their virtual address are stored in an virtual addresses array to enable accessing and freeing the data. The physical addresses however weren't stored and were accessed directly from the external-pbl during free. Destroy-qp flow, leads to freeing the external pbl before the chain is freed, when the chain is freed it tries accessing the already freed external pbl, leading to a use-after-free. Therefore we need to store the physical addresses in additional to the virtual addresses in a new data structure.

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
