CVE-2025-40235

Description

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

btrfs: directly free partially initialized fs_info in btrfs_check_leaked_roots()

If fs_info->super_copy or fs_info->super_for_commit allocated failed in
btrfs_get_tree_subvol(), then no need to call btrfs_free_fs_info().
Otherwise btrfs_check_leaked_roots() would access NULL pointer because
fs_info->allocated_roots had not been initialised.

syzkaller reported the following information:
