  "summary": "net: hns3: fix kernel crash when uninstalling driver",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: hns3: fix kernel crash when uninstalling driver\n\nWhen the driver is uninstalled and the VF is disabled concurrently, a\nkernel crash occurs. The reason is that the two actions call function\npci_disable_sriov(). The num_VFs is checked to determine whether to\nrelease the corresponding resources. During the second calling, num_VFs\nis not 0 and the resource release function is called. However, the\ncorresponding resource has been released during the first invoking.\nTherefore, the problem occurs:\n\n[15277.839633][T50670] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000020\n...\n[15278.131557][T50670] Call trace:\n[15278.134686][T50670]  klist_put+0x28/0x12c\n[15278.138682][T50670]  klist_del+0x14/0x20\n[15278.142592][T50670]  device_del+0xbc/0x3c0\n[15278.146676][T50670]  pci_remove_bus_device+0x84/0x120\n[15278.151714][T50670]  pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device+0x6c/0x80\n[15278.157447][T50670]  pci_iov_remove_virtfn+0xb4/0x12c\n[15278.162485][T50670]  sriov_disable+0x50/0x11c\n[15278.166829][T50670]  pci_disable_sriov+0x24/0x30\n[15278.171433][T50670]  hnae3_unregister_ae_algo_prepare+0x60/0x90 [hnae3]\n[15278.178039][T50670]  hclge_exit+0x28/0xd0 [hclge]\n[15278.182730][T50670]  __se_sys_delete_module.isra.0+0x164/0x230\n[15278.188550][T50670]  __arm64_sys_delete_module+0x1c/0x30\n[15278.193848][T50670]  invoke_syscall+0x50/0x11c\n[15278.198278][T50670]  el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x158/0x164\n[15278.203837][T50670]  do_el0_svc+0x34/0xcc\n[15278.207834][T50670]  el0_svc+0x20/0x30\n\nFor details, see the following figure.\n\n     rmmod hclge              disable VFs\n----------------------------------------------------\nhclge_exit()            sriov_numvfs_store()\n  ...                     device_lock()\n  pci_disable_sriov()     hns3_pci_sriov_configure()\n                            pci_disable_sriov()\n                              sriov_disable()\n    sriov_disable()             if !num_VFs :\n      if !num_VFs :               return;\n        return;                 sriov_del_vfs()\n      sriov_del_vfs()             ...\n        ...                       klist_put()\n        klist_put()               ...\n        ...                     num_VFs = 0;\n      num_VFs = 0;        device_unlock();\n\nIn this patch, when driver is removing, we get the device_lock()\nto protect num_VFs, just like sriov_numvfs_store().",
