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

md/raid1: stop mdx_raid1 thread when raid1 array run failed

fail run raid1 array when we assemble array with the inactive disk only,
but the mdx_raid1 thread were not stop, Even if the associated resources
have been released. it will caused a NULL dereference when we do poweroff.

This causes the following Oops:
