GHSA-28h2-465h-q5v7 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:block: Fix potential deadlock while freezing queue and acquiring sysfs_lockFor storing a value to a queue attribute, the queue_attr_store function
first freezes the queue (->q_usage_counter(io)) and then acquire
->sysfs_lock. This seems not correct as the usual ordering should be to
acquire ->sysfs_lock before freezing the queue. This incorrect ordering
causes the following lockdep splat which we are able to reproduce always
simply by accessing /sys/kernel/debug file using ls command:[   57.597146] WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
