stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.219 commit e8e2a4339decad7e59425b594a98613402652d72 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IA7D2Z CVE: CVE-2024-38633
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 712a1fcb38dc7cac6da63ee79a88708fbf9c45ec ]
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 ... RIP: 0010:serial_core_register_port+0xa0/0x840 ... 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.
