Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
fs: PM: Fix reverse check in filesystems_freeze_callback()<br />
<br />
The freeze_all_ptr check in filesystems_freeze_callback() introduced by<br />
commit a3f8f8662771 ("power: always freeze efivarfs") is reverse which<br />
quite confusingly causes all file systems to be frozen when<br />
filesystem_freeze_enabled is false.<br />
<br />
On my systems it causes the WARN_ON_ONCE() in __set_task_frozen() to<br />
trigger, most likely due to an attempt to freeze a file system that is<br />
not ready for that.<br />
<br />
Add a logical negation to the check in question to reverse it as<br />
appropriate.
