[PATCH 5.10 104/105] block: fix memory leak of bvec

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jul 27 2022 - 13:00:02 EST


From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8358c28a5d44bf0223a55a2334086c3707bb4185 upstream.

bio_init() clears bio instance, so the bvec index has to be set after
bio_init(), otherwise bio->bi_io_vec may be leaked.

Fixes: 3175199ab0ac ("block: split bio_kmalloc from bio_alloc_bioset")
