Doc Text:
[REJECTED CVE] A resource management issue exists in the Linux Kernel's virtio module. When request_irq() fails in vp_find_vqs_msix(), the cleanup path incorrectly attempts to free an already released IRQ, resulting in warnings and potential system instability. This issue arises from the mishandling of virtual queue deletion during error handling.
