Subject: [PATCH] PCI/sysfs: Fix double free in error path

When pci_create_attr() fails then pci_remove_resource_files() is called
which will iterate over the res_attr[_wc] arrays and frees every non
NULL entry. To avoid a double free here we have to set the failed entry
to NULL in pci_create_attr() when freeing it.

You might consider applying this alternative version instead which IMO
looks a bit better.

Subject: [PATCH] PCI/sysfs: Fix double free in error path

When pci_create_attr() fails then pci_remove_resource_files() is called
which will iterate over the res_attr[_wc] arrays and frees every non
NULL entry. To avoid a double free here set the array entry only after
it's clear we successfully initialized it.

Any input to this one? There's this long unfixed race condition
described here:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-pci/patch/20200716110423.xtfyb3n6tn5ixedh@pali/#23547255

And this patch at least prevents my system from crashing when this race
condition occurs.

Thanks, I agree, I like how this one doesn't set res_attr[] until we
know we're going to return success.

Applied to pci/sysfs for v6.2, thanks!
