CVE-2026-89548

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

SUNRPC: always drain cache_cleaner before destroying a cache_detail

sunrpc_destroy_cache_detail() only cancels the global cache_cleaner
delayed_work when cache_list is empty.  During per-netns teardown
cache_list is never empty because init_net's caches remain registered,
so the cancel never fires.  After unlink, the caller proceeds to
cache_destroy_net() which kfrees the cache_detail while cache_clean()
may still hold a dangling pointer to it.  The result is a
use-after-free: cache_dequeue() takes cd->queue_lock on freed memory,
and cache_put() dereferences cd->cache_put as a function pointer from
freed slab.

Drop the list_empty guard so that cancel_delayed_work_sync() always
runs, ensuring any in-flight cache_clean() completes before the
cache_detail is freed.  Re-arm the cleaner afterwards if other caches
are still registered.
