Subject: CVE-2025-21745: blk-cgroup: Fix class @block_class's subsystem refcount leakage
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-cgroup: Fix class @block_class's subsystem refcount leakage
blkcg_fill_root_iostats() iterates over @block_class's devices by
class_dev_iter_(init|next)(), but does not end iterating with
class_dev_iter_exit(), so causes the class's subsystem refcount leakage.
Fix by ending the iterating with class_dev_iter_exit().
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-21745 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
