CVE-2026-89558

EUVD-2026-76469
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

md/raid10: fix still_degraded being inverted in raid10_sync_request()

Commit fe6a19d40ceb ("md/md-bitmap: merge md_bitmap_start_sync() into
bitmap_operations") converted still_degraded from int to bool, but
inverted the assignment in the loop that checks whether the array will
still be degraded after the current device is recovered:
"still_degraded = 1" became "still_degraded = false".

As a result, recovering a device while another mirror is still missing
calls md_bitmap_start_sync() with degraded == false, which clears bitmap
bits that the still-missing device needs.  When that device is re-added,
its bitmap-based recovery finds the bits already cleared and skips every
region written while the array was degraded, so it is marked In_sync
while holding stale data: silent corruption.

Reproducer (raid10 near=2, 4 disks, internal bitmap):
 - fail and remove one disk of each mirror pair
 - write to the degraded array
 - re-add both disks and let recovery finish
 - "check" reports mismatch_cnt=262272 after 256 MiB of degraded
   writes and file contents differ; the second disk's "recovery"
   completes in milliseconds because everything is skipped

The same conversion in raid1 got it right (still_degraded = true).
Restore the correct value.
