    CVE-2023-54293

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bcache: fixup btree_cache_wait list damage We get a kernel crash about "list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffff9c801bc01210), but was ffff9c77b688237c.

Only one thread can do it at a time, so the op of other threads will be added to the btree_cache_wait list. We must call finish_wait() to remove op from btree_cache_wait before free it's memory address. Otherwise, the list will be damaged. Also should call bch_cannibalize_unlock() to release the btree_cache_alloc_lock and wake_up other waiters.
