In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Lag, fix failure to cancel delayed bond work
Commit 0d4e8ed139d8 ("net/mlx5: Lag, avoid lockdep warnings")
accidentally removed a call to cancel delayed bond work thus it may
cause queued delay to expire and fall on an already destroyed work
queue.
Fix by restoring the call cancel_delayed_work_sync() before
destroying the workqueue.
This prevents call trace such as this:
