CVE-2026-98498

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

net/mlx5: Fix rev entry reference leak in mlx5 tc ct shared counter get()

When the reverse entry is found but its counter is already being released, refcount inc not zero() fails and the reference taken by mlx5 tc ct entry get() is never dropped before falling through to create counter. Drop it so the reverse entry is not kept alive forever by a shared counter lookup that did not use it.
