[GIT PULL] NVDIMM fixes for 7.0-rc5

From: Ira Weiny

Date: Tue Mar 17 2026 - 16:55:57 EST


Hey Linus, please pull from:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm.git tags/libnvdimm-fixes-7.0-rc5

... to get a fix for a potential older bug recently discovered.

It is a use after free which requires a memory allocation which is probably why
it was not seen without an analysis tool.

This has been in next for a week without issues.

Thank you,
Ira
