coresight: tmc-etr: Fix race condition between sysfs and perf mode
When trying to run perf and sysfs mode simultaneously, the WARN_ON()
in tmc_etr_enable_hw() is triggered sometimes:

Since the enablement of sysfs mode is separeted into two critical regions,
one for sysfs buffer allocation and another for hardware enablement, it's
possible to race with the perf mode. Fix this by double check whether
the perf mode's been used before enabling the hardware in sysfs mode.
mode:
[sysfs mode] [perf mode]
tmc_etr_get_sysfs_buffer()
spin_lock(&drvdata->spinlock)
[sysfs buffer allocation]
spin_unlock(&drvdata->spinlock)
spin_lock(&drvdata->spinlock)
tmc_etr_enable_hw()
drvdata->etr_buf = etr_perf->etr_buf
spin_unlock(&drvdata->spinlock)
spin_lock(&drvdata->spinlock)
tmc_etr_enable_hw()
WARN_ON(drvdata->etr_buf) // WARN sicne etr_buf initialized at
the perf side
spin_unlock(&drvdata->spinlock)
With this fix, we retain the check for CS_MODE_PERF in get_etr_sysfs_buf.
This ensures we verify whether the perf mode's already running before we
actually allocate the buffer. Then we can save the time of
allocating/freeing the sysfs buffer if race with the perf mode.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ibmveth: Disable GSO for packets with small MSS
Some physical adapters on Power systems do not support segmentation
offload when the MSS is less than 224 bytes. Attempting to send such
packets causes the adapter to freeze, stopping all traffic until
manually reset.
Implement ndo_features_check to disable GSO for packets with small MSS
values. The network stack will perform software segmentation instead.
The 224-byte minimum matches ibmvnic
commit <f10b09ef687f> ("ibmvnic: Enforce stronger sanity checks
on GSO packets")
which uses the same physical adapters in SEA configurations.
The issue occurs specifically when the hardware attempts to perform
segmentation (gso_segs > 1) with a small MSS. Single-segment GSO packets
(gso_segs == 1) do not trigger the problematic LSO code path and are
transmitted normally without segmentation.
Add an ndo_features_check callback to disable GSO when MSS < 224 bytes.
Also call vlan_features_check() to ensure proper handling of VLAN packets,
particularly QinQ (802.1ad) configurations where the hardware parser may
not support certain offload features.
Validated using iptables to force small MSS values. Without the fix,
the adapter freezes. With the fix, packets are segmented in software
and transmission succeeds. Comprehensive regression testing completedd
(MSS tests, performance, stability).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inet: RAW sockets using IPPROTO_RAW MUST drop incoming ICMP
Yizhou Zhao reported that simply having one RAW socket on protocol
IPPROTO_RAW (255) was dangerous.
socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, 255);
A malicious incoming ICMP packet can set the protocol field to 255
and match this socket, leading to FNHE cache changes.
inner = IP(src="192.168.2.1", dst="8.8.8.8", proto=255)/Raw("TEST")
pkt = IP(src="192.168.1.1", dst="192.168.2.1")/ICMP(type=3, code=4, nexthopmtu=576)/inner
"man 7 raw" states:
A protocol of IPPROTO_RAW implies enabled IP_HDRINCL and is able
to send any IP protocol that is specified in the passed header.
Receiving of all IP protocols via IPPROTO_RAW is not possible
using raw sockets.
Make sure we drop these malicious packets.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: hci: shdlc: Stop timers and work before freeing context
llc_shdlc_deinit() purges SHDLC skb queues and frees the llc_shdlc
structure while its timers and state machine work may still be active.
Timer callbacks can schedule sm_work, and sm_work accesses SHDLC state
and the skb queues. If teardown happens in parallel with a queued/running
work item, it can lead to UAF and other shutdown races.
Stop all SHDLC timers and cancel sm_work synchronously before purging the
queues and freeing the context.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

PCI/P2PDMA: Fix p2pmem_alloc_mmap() warning condition
Commit b7e282378773 has already changed the initial page refcount of
p2pdma page from one to zero, however, in p2pmem_alloc_mmap() it uses

refcount should not be zero and the following will be reported when

pinctrl: canaan: k230: Fix NULL pointer dereference when parsing devicetree
When probing the k230 pinctrl driver, the kernel triggers a NULL pointer
dereference. The crash trace showed:
[ 0.732084] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000068
[ 0.740737] ...
[ 0.776296] epc : k230_pinctrl_probe+0x1be/0x4fc
In k230_pinctrl_parse_functions(), we attempt to retrieve the device
pointer via info->pctl_dev->dev, but info->pctl_dev is only initialized
after k230_pinctrl_parse_dt() completes.
At the time of DT parsing, info->pctl_dev is still NULL, leading to
the invalid dereference of info->pctl_dev->dev.
Use the already available device pointer from platform_device
instead of accessing through uninitialized pctl_dev.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: rt9455: Fix use-after-free in power_supply_changed()
Using the `devm_` variant for requesting IRQ _before_ the `devm_`
variant for allocating/registering the `power_supply` handle, means that
the `power_supply` handle will be deallocated/unregistered _before_ the
interrupt handler (since `devm_` naturally deallocates in reverse
allocation order). This means that during removal, there is a race
condition where an interrupt can fire just _after_ the `power_supply`
handle has been freed, *but* just _before_ the corresponding
unregistration of the IRQ handler has run.
This will lead to the IRQ handler calling `power_supply_changed()` with
a freed `power_supply` handle. Which usually crashes the system or
otherwise silently corrupts the memory...
Note that there is a similar situation which can also happen during
`probe()`; the possibility of an interrupt firing _before_ registering
the `power_supply` handle. This would then lead to the nasty situation
of using the `power_supply` handle *uninitialized* in
`power_supply_changed()`.
Fix this racy use-after-free by making sure the IRQ is requested _after_
the registration of the `power_supply` handle.

ipv6: Fix out-of-bound access in fib6_add_rt2node().
syzbot reported out-of-bound read in fib6_add_rt2node(). [0]
When IPv6 route is created with RTA_NH_ID, struct fib6_info
does not have the trailing struct fib6_nh.
The cited commit started to check !iter->fib6_nh->fib_nh_gw_family
to ensure that rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() will return false for iter.
If iter->nh is not NULL, rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() returns false anyway.
Let's check iter->nh before reading iter->fib6_nh and avoid OOB read.
