In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/probes: fix error check in parse_btf_field()
btf_find_struct_member() might return NULL or an error via the
ERR_PTR() macro. However, its caller in parse_btf_field() only checks
for the NULL condition. Fix this by using IS_ERR() and returning the
error up the stack.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-buf/sw-sync: don't enable IRQ from sync_print_obj()
Since commit a6aa8fca4d79 ("dma-buf/sw-sync: Reduce irqsave/irqrestore from
known context") by error replaced spin_unlock_irqrestore() with
spin_unlock_irq() for both sync_debugfs_show() and sync_print_obj() despite
sync_print_obj() is called from sync_debugfs_show(), lockdep complains
inconsistent lock state warning.
Use plain spin_{lock,unlock}() for sync_print_obj(), for
sync_debugfs_show() is already using spin_{lock,unlock}_irq().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: max3100: Update uart_driver_registered on driver removal
The removal of the last MAX3100 device triggers the removal of
the driver. However, code doesn't update the respective global
variable and after insmod — rmmod — insmod cycle the kernel
oopses:
max3100 spi-PRP0001:01: max3100_probe: adding port 0
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000408

max3100_probe+0x1b6/0x280 [max3100]
spi_probe+0x8d/0xb0
Update the actual state so next time UART driver will be registered
again.
Hugo also noticed, that the error path in the probe also affected
by having the variable set, and not cleared. Instead of clearing it
move the assignment after the successfull uart_register_driver() call.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: max3100: Lock port->lock when calling uart_handle_cts_change()
uart_handle_cts_change() has to be called with port lock taken,
Since we run it in a separate work, the lock may not be taken at
the time of running. Make sure that it's taken by explicitly doing
that. Without it we got a splat:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soundwire: cadence: fix invalid PDI offset
For some reason, we add an offset to the PDI, presumably to skip the
PDI0 and PDI1 which are reserved for BPT.
This code is however completely wrong and leads to an out-of-bounds
access. We were just lucky so far since we used only a couple of PDIs
and remained within the PDI array bounds.
A Fixes: tag is not provided since there are no known platforms where
the out-of-bounds would be accessed, and the initial code had problems
as well.
A follow-up patch completely removes this useless offset.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: core: Fix hang in usb_kill_urb by adding memory barriers
The syzbot fuzzer has identified a bug in which processes hang waiting
for usb_kill_urb() to return. It turns out the issue is not unlinking
the URB; that works just fine. Rather, the problem arises when the
wakeup notification that the URB has completed is not received.
The reason is memory-access ordering on SMP systems. In outline form,
usb_kill_urb() and __usb_hcd_giveback_urb() operating concurrently on
different CPUs perform the following actions:
CPU 0 CPU 1
---------------------------- ---------------------------------
usb_kill_urb(): __usb_hcd_giveback_urb():
... ...
atomic_inc(&urb->reject); atomic_dec(&urb->use_count);
... ...
wait_event(usb_kill_urb_queue,
atomic_read(&urb->use_count) == 0);
if (atomic_read(&urb->reject))
wake_up(&usb_kill_urb_queue);
Confining your attention to urb->reject and urb->use_count, you can
see that the overall pattern of accesses on CPU 0 is:
write urb->reject, then read urb->use_count;
whereas the overall pattern of accesses on CPU 1 is:
write urb->use_count, then read urb->reject.
This pattern is referred to in memory-model circles as SB (for "Store
Buffering"), and it is well known that without suitable enforcement of
the desired order of accesses -- in the form of memory barriers -- it
is entirely possible for one or both CPUs to execute their reads ahead
of their writes. The end result will be that sometimes CPU 0 sees the
old un-decremented value of urb->use_count while CPU 1 sees the old
un-incremented value of urb->reject. Consequently CPU 0 ends up on
the wait queue and never gets woken up, leading to the observed hang
in usb_kill_urb().
The same pattern of accesses occurs in usb_poison_urb() and the
failure pathway of usb_hcd_submit_urb().
The problem is fixed by adding suitable memory barriers. To provide
proper memory-access ordering in the SB pattern, a full barrier is
required on both CPUs. The atomic_inc() and atomic_dec() accesses
themselves don't provide any memory ordering, but since they are
present, we can use the optimized smp_mb__after_atomic() memory
barrier in the various routines to obtain the desired effect.
This patch adds the necessary memory barriers.

The basic flow:
1. run time suspend call xhci_suspend, xhci parent devices gate the clock.
2. echo mem >/sys/power/state, system _device_suspend call xhci_suspend
3. xhci_suspend call xhci_disable_hub_port_wake, which access register,
but clock already gated by run time suspend.
This problem was hidden by power domain driver, which call run time resume before it.
But the below commit remove it and make this issue happen.
commit c1df456d0f06e ("PM: domains: Don't runtime resume devices at genpd_prepare()")
This patch call run time resume before suspend to make sure clock is on
before access register.
