CVE-2025-39674

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

scsi: ufs: ufs-qcom: Fix ESI null pointer dereference

ESI/MSI is a performance optimization feature that provides dedicated
interrupts per MCQ hardware queue. This is optional feature and UFS MCQ
should work with and without ESI feature.

Commit e46a28cea29a ("scsi: ufs: qcom: Remove the MSI descriptor abuse")
brings a regression in ESI (Enhanced System Interrupt) configuration that
causes a null pointer dereference when Platform MSI allocation fails.

The issue occurs in when platform_device_msi_init_and_alloc_irqs() in
ufs_qcom_config_esi() fails (returns -EINVAL) but the current code uses
__free() macro for automatic cleanup free MSI resources that were never
successfully allocated.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual
address 0000000000000008

  Call trace:
  mutex_lock+0xc/0x54 (P)
  platform_device_msi_free_irqs_all+0x1c/0x40
  ufs_qcom_config_esi+0x1d0/0x220 [ufs_qcom]
  ufshcd_config_mcq+0x28/0x104
  ufshcd_init+0xa3c/0xf40
  ufshcd_pltfrm_init+0x504/0x7d4
  ufs_qcom_probe+0x20/0x58 [ufs_qcom]

Fix by restructuring the ESI configuration to try MSI allocation first,
before any other resource allocation and instead use explicit cleanup
instead of __free() macro to avoid cleanup of unallocated resources.

Tested on SM8750 platform with MCQ enabled, both with and without
Platform ESI support.
