[ Upstream commit8c0ee19db8] In passthrough mode, dm-cache defers write submission until after metadata commit completes via the invalidate_committed() continuation. On commit error, invalidate_committed() calls invalidate_complete() to end the bio and free the migration struct, after which it should return immediately. The patch4ca8b8bd95("dm cache: fix write hang in passthrough mode") omitted this early return, causing execution to fall through into the success path on error. This results in use-after-free on the migration struct in the subsequent calls. Fix by adding the missing return after the invalidate_complete() call.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
