In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

IB/hfi1: Correctly move list in sc_disable()

Commit 13bac861952a ("IB/hfi1: Fix abba locking issue with sc_disable()")
incorrectly tries to move a list from one list head to another. The
result is a kernel crash.

The crash is triggered when a link goes down and there are waiters for a
send to complete. The following signature is seen:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030
[...]
Call Trace:
sc_disable+0x1ba/0x240 [hfi1]

The fix is to use the correct call to move the list.
