This patchset is same as that for 6.12.y.

Backport of the CVE-2026-52991 fix.

  1/2 (94a4acfec146) clear of->priv on release, turning the UAF into an
      easier-to-detect NULL deref.
  2/2 (a5b98009f16d, the CVE fix) extend cgroup_mutex to cover all
      of->priv accesses, read ctx after taking the kn lock, and NULL-check
      of->priv. It depends on 1/2 as discussed in [0].
