CVE-2025-21953 net: mana: cleanup mana struct after debugfs_remove()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: mana: cleanup mana struct after debugfs_remove()

When on a MANA VM hibernation is triggered, as part of hibernate_snapshot(),
mana_gd_suspend() and mana_gd_resume() are called. If during this
mana_gd_resume(), a failure occurs with HWC creation, mana_port_debugfs
pointer does not get reinitialized and ends up pointing to older,
cleaned-up dentry.
Further in the hibernation path, as part of power_down(), mana_gd_shutdown()
is triggered. This call, unaware of the failures in resume, tries to cleanup
the already cleaned up  mana_port_debugfs value and hits the following bug:
