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

KVM: Stop looking for coalesced MMIO zones if the bus is destroyed

Abort the walk of coalesced MMIO zones if kvmiobusunregisterdev() fails to allocate memory for the new instance of the bus. If it can't instantiate a new bus, unregisterdev() destroys all devices _except the target device. But, it doesn't tell the caller that it obliterated the bus and invoked the destructor for all devices that were on the bus. In the coalesced MMIO case, this can result in a deleted list entry dereference due to attempting to continue iterating on coalesced_zones after future entries (in the walk) have been deleted.

Opportunistically add curly braces to the for-loop, which encompasses many lines but sneaks by without braces due to the guts being a single if statement.
