In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfs: Clean up /proc/net/rpc/nfs when nfs_fs_proc_net_init() fails. syzbot reported a warning below [1] following a fault injection in nfs_fs_proc_net_init(). [0] When nfs_fs_proc_net_init() fails, /proc/net/rpc/nfs is not removed. Later, rpc_proc_exit() tries to remove /proc/net/rpc, and the warning is logged as the directory is not empty. Let's handle the error of nfs_fs_proc_net_init() properly. [0]: FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure. name failslab, interval 1, probability 0, space 0, times 0 CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 6120 Comm: syz.2.27 Not tainted 6.16.0-rc1-syzkaller-00010-g2c4a1f3fe03e #0 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 05/07/2025 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl…
