  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/mlx5: Register devlink first under devlink lock\n\nIn case device is having a non fatal FW error during probe, the\ndriver will report the error to user via devlink. This will trigger\na WARN_ON, since mlx5 is calling devlink_register() last.\nIn order to avoid the WARN_ON[1], change mlx5 to invoke devl_register()\nfirst under devlink lock.\n\n[1]\nWARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 227 at net/devlink/health.c:483 devlink_recover_notify.constprop.0+0xb8/0xc0\nCPU: 5 PID: 227 Comm: kworker/u16:3 Not tainted 6.4.0-rc5_for_upstream_min_debug_2023_06_12_12_38 #1\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-0-gf21b5a4aeb02-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014\nWorkqueue: mlx5_health0000:08:00.0 mlx5_fw_reporter_err_work [mlx5_core]\nRIP: 0010:devlink_recover_notify.constprop.0+0xb8/0xc0\nCall Trace:\n <TASK>\n ? __warn+0x79/0x120\n ? devlink_recover_notify.constprop.0+0xb8/0xc0\n ? report_bug+0x17c/0x190\n ? handle_bug+0x3c/0x60\n ? exc_invalid_op+0x14/0x70\n ? asm_exc_invalid_op+0x16/0x20\n ? devlink_recover_notify.constprop.0+0xb8/0xc0\n devlink_health_report+0x4a/0x1c0\n mlx5_fw_reporter_err_work+0xa4/0xd0 [mlx5_core]\n process_one_work+0x1bb/0x3c0\n ? process_one_work+0x3c0/0x3c0\n worker_thread+0x4d/0x3c0\n ? process_one_work+0x3c0/0x3c0\n kthread+0xc6/0xf0\n ? kthread_complete_and_exit+0x20/0x20\n ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30\n </TASK>",
