CVE-2025-21796

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

nfsd: clear acl_access/acl_default after releasing them

If getting acl_default fails, acl_access and acl_default will be released
simultaneously. However, acl_access will still retain a pointer pointing
to the released posix_acl, which will trigger a WARNING in
nfs3svc_release_getacl like this:
