The command completion was done early while aborting the commands in driver
unload path but outside lock to avoid the WARN_ON condition of performing
dma_free_attr within the lock. However this caused race condition while
command completion via multiple paths causing system crash.
Hence complete the command early in unload path but within the lock to
avoid race condition.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Fix for possible memory corruption
Init Control Block is dereferenced incorrectly. Correctly dereference ICB
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: During vport delete send async logout explicitly
During vport delete, it is observed that during unload we hit a crash
because of stale entries in outstanding command array. For all these stale
I/O entries, eh_abort was issued and aborted (fast_fail_io = 2009h) but
I/Os could not complete while vport delete is in process of deleting.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/imx-irqsteer: Handle runtime power management correctly
The power domain is automatically activated from clk_prepare(). However, on
certain platforms like i.MX8QM and i.MX8QXP, the power-on handling invokes
sleeping functions, which triggers the 'scheduling while atomic' bug in the
context switch path during device probing:

Cure this by implementing the irq_bus_lock/sync_unlock() interrupt chip
callbacks and handle power management in them as they are invoked from
non-atomic context.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Add a per-VF limit on number of FDIR filters
While the iavf driver adds a s/w limit (128) on the number of FDIR
filters that the VF can request, a malicious VF driver can request more
than that and exhaust the resources for other VFs.
Add a similar limit in ice.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kobject_uevent: Fix OOB access within zap_modalias_env()
zap_modalias_env() wrongly calculates size of memory block to move, so
will cause OOB memory access issue if variable MODALIAS is not the last
one within its @env parameter, fixed by correcting size to memmove.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: mm: Fix lockless walks with static and dynamic page-table folding
Lina reports random oopsen originating from the fast GUP code when
16K pages are used with 4-level page-tables, the fourth level being
folded at runtime due to lack of LPA2.
In this configuration, the generic implementation of
p4d_offset_lockless() will return a 'p4d_t *' corresponding to the
'pgd_t' allocated on the stack of the caller, gup_fast_pgd_range().
This is normally fine, but when the fourth level of page-table is folded
at runtime, pud_offset_lockless() will offset from the address of the
'p4d_t' to calculate the address of the PUD in the same page-table page.
This results in a stray stack read when the 'p4d_t' has been allocated
on the stack and can send the walker into the weeds.
Fix the problem by providing our own definition of p4d_offset_lockless()
when CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS <= 4 which returns the real page-table
pointer rather than the address of the local stack variable.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

SCSI does not set GD_OWNS_QUEUE, so QUEUE_FLAG_DYING is not set in
this scenario. This is a classic ABBA deadlock. To fix the deadlock,
make sure we don't try to acquire disk->open_mutex after freezing
the queue.

riscv/mm: Add handling for VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV in mm_fault_error()
Handle VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV in the page fault path so that we correctly
