[PATCH] md: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in md_super_write

Posted by Ye Chey 6 months, 3 weeks ago

The bio_alloc_bioset() call in md_super_write() could fail under memory
pressure and return NULL. Add a check to handle this case gracefully by
returning early, preventing a potential NULL pointer dereference.
