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

nbd: fix possible overflow on 'first_minor' in nbd_dev_add()

When 'index' is a big numbers, it may become negative which forced
to 'int'. then 'index << part_shift' might overflow to a positive
value that is not greater than '0xfffff', then sysfs might complains
about duplicate creation. Because of this, move the 'index' judgment
to the front will fix it and be better.
