Bug 2492101 (CVE-2026-52939)

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

net/rds: fix NULL deref in rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() on masked atomic completion

rds_ib_xmit_atomic() always programs a masked atomic opcode
(IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_CMP_AND_SWP or IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_FETCH_AND_ADD)
for every RDS atomic cmsg.  But the completion-side switch in
rds_ib_send_unmap_op() only handles the non-masked opcodes, so a masked
atomic completion falls through to default and returns rm == NULL while
send->s_op is left set.  rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() then dereferences the
NULL rm via rm->m_final_op, oopsing in softirq context.  An unprivileged
AF_RDS sendmsg() of an atomic cmsg over an active RDS/IB connection
triggers it; on hardware that natively accepts masked atomics (mlx4,
mlx5) no extra setup is needed.

  RDS/IB: rds_ib_send_unmap_op: unexpected opcode 0xd in WR!
  Oops: general protection fault [#1] SMP KASAN
  KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000190-0x0000000000000197]

Handle the masked atomic opcodes in the same case as the non-masked
ones: they map to the same struct rds_message.atomic union member, so
the existing container_of()/rds_ib_send_unmap_atomic() body is correct
for them.
