Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
serial: imx: Add missing .thaw_noirq hook<br />
<br />
The following warning is seen with non-console UART instance when<br />
system hibernates.<br />

<br />
On hibernating, pm core calls into related hooks in sequence like:<br />
<br />
.freeze<br />
.freeze_noirq<br />
.thaw_noirq<br />
.thaw<br />
<br />
With .thaw_noirq hook being absent, the clock will be disabled in a<br />
unbalanced call which results the warning above.<br />
<br />
imx_uart_freeze()<br />
clk_prepare_enable()<br />
imx_uart_suspend_noirq()<br />
clk_disable()<br />
imx_uart_thaw<br />
clk_disable_unprepare()<br />
<br />
Adding the missing .thaw_noirq hook as imx_uart_resume_noirq() will have<br />
the call sequence corrected as below and thus fix the warning.<br />
<br />
imx_uart_freeze()<br />
clk_prepare_enable()<br />
imx_uart_suspend_noirq()<br />
clk_disable()<br />
imx_uart_resume_noirq()<br />
clk_enable()<br />
imx_uart_thaw<br />
clk_disable_unprepare()
