CVE-2026-53050

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

quota: Fix race of dquot_scan_active() with quota deactivation

dquot_scan_active() can race with quota deactivation in
quota_release_workfn() like:

  CPU0 (quota_release_workfn)         CPU1 (dquot_scan_active)
  ==============================      ==============================
  spin_lock(&dq_list_lock);
  list_replace_init(
    &releasing_dquots, &rls_head);
    /* dquot X on rls_head,
       dq_count == 0,
       DQ_ACTIVE_B still set */
  spin_unlock(&dq_list_lock);
  synchronize_srcu(&dquot_srcu);
                                      spin_lock(&dq_list_lock);
                                      list_for_each_entry(dquot,
                                          &inuse_list, dq_inuse) {
                                        /* finds dquot X */
                                        dquot_active(X) -> true
                                        atomic_inc(&X->dq_count);
                                      }
                                      spin_unlock(&dq_list_lock);
  spin_lock(&dq_list_lock);
  dquot = list_first_entry(&rls_head);
  WARN_ON_ONCE(atomic_read(&dquot->dq_count));

The problem is not only a cosmetic one as under memory pressure the
caller of dquot_scan_active() can end up working on freed dquot.

Fix the problem by making sure the dquot is removed from releasing list
when we acquire a reference to it.
