Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
gpio: rockchip: fix generic IRQ chip leak on remove<br />
<br />
The driver allocates domain generic chips using<br />
irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips() during probe. However, on driver<br />
remove/teardown, the generic chips are not automatically freed when the<br />
IRQ domain is removed because the domain flags do not include<br />
IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC.<br />
<br />
This causes both the domain generic chips structure and the associated<br />
generic chips to be leaked. Additionally, the generic chips remain on<br />
the global gc_list and may later be visited by generic IRQ chip suspend,<br />
resume, or shutdown callbacks after the GPIO bank has been removed,<br />
potentially resulting in a use-after-free and kernel crash.<br />
<br />
Fix the resource leak by explicitly calling<br />
irq_domain_remove_generic_chips() before removing the IRQ domain in<br />
rockchip_gpio_remove().
