CVE-2026-89449

EUVD-2026-76355
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iommu: Fix dev_iommu memory leak when device_add fails in iommu_mock_device_add

iommu_mock_device_add() first calls iommu_fwspec_init(), which on
success allocates both dev->iommu (via dev_iommu_get()) and
dev->iommu->fwspec. If the subsequent device_add(dev) call fails,
the error path only calls iommu_fwspec_free(dev), which frees
fwspec but leaves dev->iommu still allocated.

This triggers the following kmemleak report when fuzzing with Syzkaller:

Fix this by calling dev_iommu_free(dev) instead of iommu_fwspec_free(dev)
in the device_add() failure path. dev_iommu_free() frees both fwspec
and the outer dev_iommu struct and clears dev->iommu.
